I tend not to be launching much stuff when I'm working - editors, browsers, VMs etc are already open. Plus I have three monitors, and tend to have it opening on the smallest so it doesn't get in the way. I do think Microsoft should have made it optional - it's obvious this is what people wanted, and it's not like it would have cost them much in development/support. Still, at least there's now a huge bunch of third party software to replace/augment it, most with far greater configurability than the original Start menu.
