Windows 10 close to overtaking Windows 7 among Steam users
According to the results of the January 2016 Steam survey, Windows 10 64-bit increased its market share by 1.52 percent while the 32-bit version grew by 0.07 percent. The most-used OS among Steam users is still the 64-bit version of Windows 7, which holds 34.31 percent share. However, it could lose its crown within a month or two if the current rate of decline continues. The 32-bit version of Windows 7 is still being used by 7.7 percent of the users but that number hasn't changed in a couple of months.
It has been observed that Windows 8.1 users are switching to Windows 10 at a more rapid rate, which might be in part due to more compatible hardware in comparison with Windows 7 systems. One interesting revelation from the last two survey results is the increase in Windows XP users but the overall share of the OS is quite low.

Good for Windows 10. Wouldn't think it'd be better for gaming but it's proving me wrong

Have they worked out the majority of the bugs in WinX since release? I am interested in upgrading to 10, but don't want a bunch of bugs and shit.

This is good for them but I still use Windows 7 just because I don't use my computer that much.
