Was just reading about Windows 10 the pros / cons ...from Windows/ signed up. My finacee has Windows 7 Ultimate and will receive Windows 10 Pro.

I have Windows 8.1 and will receive Windows 10 Home.

Question:

My laptop (Toshiba Qosmio) does not have a fingerprint device / I've read that you would need a different kind of camera (infrared?) from the built in web cam. Is it REQUIRED that you use the Biometric "Hello"? If so what kind of Biometric devices do you recommend and why?

If not, what's the downside (other than theft...and someone could break into your personal data).

Thanks

Windows 10 does not require a biometric login. You can still use a password.

But if you want to go the biometric route, I think you should get the Sally G069. It is shaped like a chorus girl, and uses a fluid sample to verify your identity.
