THANK YOU!!!

I've been saying this for months.


>I've been using Win8 for a few months. I rarely see the Metro screen: Win+m brings you right to the desktop. I pin the apps I use frequently to the taskbar; have infrequently used ones on the desktop. When I have to find something not there, I press the Win key, and begin typing: the list comes up, I select from the list, and I'm back on the desktop. It's really not a bother, at all.

>The OS itself is by far the smoothest I have used from MS, which is where almost all of my history and experience is. I enjoy the smoothness. Things are fast (but that's probably partly the machine: i7, 750GB hybrid drives, mirrored). Crashing an app is even smoother than Win7.

>Oh, the only other trick you need (I think): when you want to restart, don't bother going to the metro screen: click on the desktop screen, enter alt+F4 (just like the old days).
