That doesn't go away. They just outright ****ed up. There's already talk of M$ putting the start menu back in in a future service pack. It's that bad.

That's what I do. I still get the benefits of the fast startup and use my old 7 style desktop.

lol, once you figure out how to use it and where stuff is (yes, a little learning curve for people who arent good with computers) its pretty damned easy.
I have no issues with the lay out and how to use it. Its pretty easy once you mess with it for about 15 minutes. |

Not to mention that Metro is a completely different ecosystem than the core Windows OS. It'd be one thing if they were fluidly merged, but switching back and forth all the time is just stupid. |

Or you can learn to adapt to a faster method. Using the mouse to hunt and click is time consuming.

Damn people, change is not bad. You had to learn how to use windows the first time. I personally love windows 8 and have no issue multitasking. I can't wait to have virtually the same os on all my electronic devices.

It's also not always necessary. My PC is not a tablet or a smartphone. So therefore, I can do without a tablet OS on my PC. |

Yeah, the drawn password thing is ridiculous for a desktop without a touch sensitive screen.

This touchpad swipe to toggle between the desktop and metro is also driving me nuts. Need to shut it off. |
