All I want too know is can you now easily make Metro not the default GUI and can the start button menu now appear easily. ALl without hacks and addons and mods by third parties. If they have done that, I'll bite, that alone stopped a laptop sale for a friend who stuck with windows 7 laptop as not even a salesman could demo/handle it. Tried a few shops as well and all and myself and friend just could not handle it, was messy. Now touch screen laptops, whilst much more compfortable with metro, still only suitable if you use it as a tablet with keyboard
