Hi there
Thanks
Can't wait.
BTW any implementation of INTEL's Wireless display -- I know it's hardware but will W10 support it. I'd love to use a wireless connection to an external monitor -- get rid of HDMI cables. Audio shouldn't be a problem - even FLAC uses minimal bandwidth compared to video.
Cheers
