There is no way out of the "metro" interface? Clarification: I assumed el_cuadrado was refering to metro being "unusable". Is that true?

  To run desktop apps, you can go to the desktop. I've been using it as my primary OS for several months now Disclosure: MSFT Employee

    I recently bought a laptop and it's the first time I've had windows on my home machine since 2004. Since it's only $15 to upgrade: Is it possible/easy to upgrade and go back to Windows 7 if I find it detestable?

      Going back means using the restore disks or partitions that came with your computer, or installing fresh from a retail DVD of a previous OS. There's no "downgrade" process.

  Of course, 1% of your time is spent in Metro if you use it on a desktop, and that's generally when you're searching for something.
