my initial install last september, in which i used Tron and Win10 Lite to hack out various features, has annoying quirks and surprisingly bad performance

for next, i was initially attracted to LTSB (long term servicing branch) which is basically launch W10 minus metro apps (even store), minus major updates like Anniv/Creators, and with continual security updates for 10 yrs

but i honestly like having Edge and i want the awful store/xbox integ. for occasional apps (phantom dust!). plus whatever major feature updates.

so i will try editing a Pro ISO down into a near-LTSB state with MSMG Toolkit. looks easy enough.
