As I said, it's easier and faster than navigating a hierarchical menu and there are times I still can't find what I want there.

I've talked to many people that have used Win8 and agree with me. Some of those people are die-hard Apple users and some of those even thinking they may want to switch to Win8.

If I'm on the start screen and want to get back to the desktop, I hit windows+D. It's become second nature and I've found typing in the name of the program to find it is easier and faster than navigating a hierarchical list of items. But again, how you work may differ from how I work.
