I do need to switch to metro, but a single press of the Windows key does that. I then type in the application name, so no hunting for one tile among dozens.

So in other words, on your laptop you are avoiding Metro and using the desktop.

How many people will get excited about metro and touch interface when they need to primarily use the desktop because the metro interface isn't worth a damn on anything bigger than a tablet (if that)?
