Downloaded and installed build 9879!! After restarting, noticed 2 additional updates and was able to install and restart...

Confirmed the same as working:
1. OneNote with Pen works:

- caveat is Surface Hub somehow doesn't recognize pen even after refreshing.
- After opening OneNote 2013 and configuring it as default, pen still open OneNote (MUI)​

2. Wireless Display Adapter works!!!

3. company VPN also works

Many more things to try but first impressions with the build is pretty awesome and smooth. Hopefully more positive discovery in the next few hours and days....

I like the [Windows Key] + arrow key to snap to top, left, right, restore, etc.

Screen rotation sequence remains as:
Go black, Show again, shrink slightly, rotate but remain slightly shrunken, snap back big.

Would prefer this sequence:
Rotate.

+1

Still the same behavior Thought they would fix that too. Oh well, still some positive results as time goes along.

New bug in build 9879 - I don't always get the boot menu. If I click Restart I never get the boot menu, it just reboots back to the default OS. If I Shutdown and then start it up it sometimes give me the boot menu but sometimes just boots directly to the default OS. I can always change which OS is default in msconfig.

But, this build is faster than the last and my pen button now opens OneNote. I may just stop using Win8.1 altogether.

- Pen not working yet, but pen button opens OneNote / takes screenshots.
- VPN working better than it did in Windows 8.1

Besides the Definition Updates for Defender, I also had an additional update for the Windows Tech. Preview November Update for x64 Systems. Anyone else get this update?

Ran WiFi through tests. Better performance than I got using Windows 8.1 (peak was about 49 Mbps). Happiness.

Ok for me the newest feature they added in Build 9879 which makes the Windows 10 TP experience cool are the new trackpad gestures:

3 finger up -> Task View,

3 finger down -> show Desktop,

3 finger flick to left or right -> switches to previous app,

3 finger move left or right -> Alt-Tab appears,

3 finger tap -> Search
