Anyway, that's why I bristle a bit when people say to install their favorite
app to make 8 look like 7. It's only true as long as you keep your hands off
the mouse and keyboard. Once you actually *use* your PC, the differences are
numerous and obvious. As I said above, Classic Shell and Start8 and their
cousins can't do anything about that and it's unfortunate.


What's really unfortunate is MS dumping something like Win8 on their
users. Here's how that came about:

I never held that video against Ballmer. I know the CEO if the compnay I
worked for did a lot of crazy things while giving presentations for
employees.

Between Vista and Win8 though MS really dropped the ball.
