When Win10 dropped and yanked the Start button - I bought my first Mac.

To funny!   I suspect I'm an old dinosaur compared to you.   My first computer was a TI-99/4a. Apple II was an expensive boat anchor compared to my TI back then.

If you are a design engineer that worked for Intel and AMD, I suspect you don't go back 40 years.

Nope. Don’t go back quite 40 years, yet. Just go back ~30 years. Started with NASA out of college and found my way back there now. Just a geek at heart.

Since Intel was founded on July 18, 1968, in Mountain View, CA, 48 years ago, I suspect he can go back 40 years. I go back that far and I didn't work for Intel. . . but I worked on Intel products. :^)

Wasn't that Win8? I believe Win10 has a start bar/button.
