> So I install Start8. How much IQ does that take????

Most Windows users are either:

It's not about IQ.

They SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Microsoft screwed the pooch, and their own customers, with Metro.

Even Microsoft has accepted this, and are correcting it. Surely you can do the same. :)

Hi again... :)

I don't mean to sound testy. It's just that as a System Administrator, with front-office users who are frustrated by the Win 8 UI every day, I am very sensitized to the pointless waste of productivity that Microsoft inflicted on Corporate America with Metro.

It's not about Windows 8 as an OS. It's a fine OS.

With a User Interface from Hell, when it's on a desktop or laptop.

On a phone, Metro works fine. I actually rather like it... on a phone. On a desktop, I want to throw the damn thing through a wall after 5 minutes.

You see, not everyone is in a position to install things that fix Microsoft's egregious errors. Some of us have to live with them.
