Maybe my post wasn't clear I was trying to say that the lack of a Start Menu is clearly a big problem in 8 and that rumor has it that there will be some type of Start Menu or mini-Start Screen in Windows 9. It's obvious that the full screen elements are an issue with a lot of people and this needs to be addressed. However I do think that this issue is way overblown and that the Start Menu isn't nearly the quintessential tool of desktop efficiency that many make it out to be. Otherwise I don't know how anyone would be able to effectively use Windows 8 as a desktop OS.
I use a Microsoft Touch Mouse that supports a number of gestures. I use a two finger flick up to activate the Start Screen, that's just TONS faster than a button click because is can happen anywhere on the screen and on any screen with a multiple monitors setup.
No heatless, I read what you wrote and you were perfectly clear. Unfortunately, sometimes, people read or hear what they want, not what was said or wrote. Also, I agree without you, the issues are often overblown. However, in our industry, you deal with things as they come up, not this stupid, polarizing extremes that some like to bring into the mix.
