That was my biggest complaint about Win8. I was perfectly happy with Win7, but I've adjusted now with a few tweaks on my taskbar. They need to just go ahead and redo the start button exactly as it was with Win7.

Win8 = a solution in search of a problem. They should have just done a separate version for tablets and phones and called it a day.

on edit: Win8.1 messed up my printer, so back to Win8 I go.
