...yuck.

Yeah, I think you're right. I don't find touchscreens easier either. Ever try to type on one of those fucking touch keyboards?

I need the tactical feedback from a real keyboard to touch type, even those membrane keyboards where you still have to press down are a problem.  If you have to look where your hands are while typing it's kind of useless.  I guess eventually things will progress to voice recognition, but that will have a whole lot of problems that will be difficult to solve.

Making EVERYTHING look like iOS or Android is really starting to get annoying.  I really don't want every screen everywhere to be pages of square icons.....

Also, remember when "apps" were called programs?

I was just going to type that...

Also, why do I need an "app" for weather? There's at least two websites, which are free, that have weather information on them all the time.  I'm sure the same goes for any number of other "apps".  Also, remember when "apps" were called programs?

Get that fucking crap off my desktop.

Also, that guy sounds disgusting. He's all clogged up with dairy mucous or something. I can almost smell his gross milk breath.

I duno, I don't not like it. I don't feel compelled to download it, but I don't have any automatic hate towards it. Once I realized that the desktop looks pretty much the same then it made sense. It's not like the start menu was all that great before. This actually seems to display your programs better and make them more accessible. And that's prett much what it is, a different start menu.

Though my favorite part was the 'one folder back' button. It's stupid that that was ever taken out.
