1. The OOBE experience ran twice. It rebooted half way through the first one to apply updates and then I had to do it all again.
2. It lost the product key and won't activate even though this is a genuine copy from MSDN. I guess I have to wait for a key from MSDN later today. Not end of the world but a pain point. If it isn't activated, hardly anything works now.
3. However that's all pointless as it hangs solid after 3-5 minutes reliably. That's not enough time to even roll a single windows update in so I'm shafted.
This is a rock solid Lenovo X201 that has never had a single problem with any Windows release. It hasn't crashed once since I bought it new.
Not impressed. Spent an hour rolling it back.
I imagine, considering this was quality well tested hardware, that this is going to be nothing but hell for people. If even 1% of people have this experience, the media will blow big time and I'd hope that they do.
Edit: on my Sony VPC-J1 AOI machine that fails with "Windows 10 upgrade failed" after pissing around for an hour. At least that didn't hose the machine.
