The upgrade itself was pretty painless. Other than some weird "windows 10 does things differently" I have had no OS issues.

The only thing that didn't seem to be compatible was Steam, which required me to re-download and re-install; that fixed it up.

Also I believe virtualbox is currently not compatible with windows 10, but I don't use it anymore so it wasn't a deal breaker for me.

I didn't have any OS specific issues either. I, also, had to re-install steam (though all the data files were fine) but after the re-install things seemed fine.

good that you mentioned VirtualBox. I am actually using Vagrant and VirtualBox currently. So I guess I should keep this in mind.

Oh wow, they released an update!

The 5.0 release supports the latest guest or host operating systems including: Mac OS X Yosemite, Windows 10, Oracle Linux, Oracle Solaris, other Linux operating systems, and legacy operating systems.

So you should be good to go.

I have VirtualBox v5.0.4 and can confirm that VirtualBox works perfectly. I currently has 3 VMs:

Debian 8.2.0

Ubuntu 14.04.03

Xubuntu 14.04

All are running x64 and Ubuntu/Xubuntu has 3D acceleration activated.

Guest drivers also works as expected.
