The hot corners don't work well with multiple screens (even with the 6 pixel

Wouldn't mind the start screen so much if everything was just on one page -
but having to right-click and go "all apps" makes it a bit of a pain. And
when you view "all apps", there's far too much to quickly find what you
want. Preferred the Start Menu where everything was in a folder until you
opened it. (Winkey-Q does this a bit quicker, but means resorting to the
keyboard)

Having taskbars across multiple monitors would be far more useful if the
buttons all remained in the same place (i.e., if all the taskbars were
identical). If you've a load of windows open, a button might be right on the
end of the first row on one screen, but mid-way through another row on
another (because of movement caused by the tray icons and clock). So
annoying, it's not worth having the feature on :-(

And the usual complaint about not being able to switch Metro off :-(


Add "removed full configuration of AV" to the list...
