I can appreciate what you’re saying, but it’s a terrible idea to force a tablet paradigm in non-touch screen scenarios. 8 would have been fine if you could choose your start bar. Don’t say this wasn’t possible, because there was third-party software to make that happen.

8 only gets hate because people lost their minds with the start menu change.

It had multiple personalities disorder. Two e-mails, two browsers, two settings. It was confusing as hell.

I actually liked it then, you could just roughly click in the area and would hit the right shortcut.

I liked the start page. I don’t use icons on the desktop though. Being able to pull up a customized shortcut screen was quite nice.
