Obviously it's a highly controversial upgrade, maybe it's best to not
ever upgrade to it, but Microsoft is already talking about the 1904
upgrade. I haven't been offered this upgrade yet. Microsoft usually
doesn't allow an upgrade between two non-adjacent versions. Just
concerned that I may get stuck on 1803 forever, or I'm going to be
offered the 1809 just weeks before 1904 is offered to me, and I'd have
to go through two major upgrades soon after each other.

I have a test install here (activated) that has
not been offered 1809 by Windows Update. Still at 1803.

Patch Tuesdays are coming in as normal. Nothing should
really block the Upgrade, since the video card present
in the machine now is still in support (for another
three years at least).

They will push 1809 to you, roughly one month
before 1904. For hard cases (tablet owners), they
tend to put a push on near the end of a cycle.
For my test install case, that means in another
month or so, I'll be getting it.

I've never received an Upgrade via Windows Update yet!
I'm not patient enough for that. However, that test
install is specifically for testing Windows Update Upgrade
behavior, so waiting is all part of the fun for my test case.

I usually jam in a DVD, for the images that are considered
production.
