“It’s one thing to screw up tens of millions of adults’ mental balance by destroying what was arguably the world’s most popular desktop UI for 15 years, replacing it with Fisher-Price blocks.”

best description yet.

Know what? Embrace the blocks. Sure, they look infantile, like the people they're aimed at.

That doesn't mean you can't configure them to your advantage. I deleted all the moronic "apps" and put shortcuts to my regular applications on the left side of the startscreen. Now it's easier when I want to switch applications in desktop to push the windows key and zap to the application from the startscreen.

Much faster than mousing around in the start menu.
