Have to wait and see, the RC version is not out yet so anyone who says yes and gives a price is kidding themselves as MS have not even said yet officially. The rumors are, RC in May/June with RTM in October, generally the RC version is very close to the finished product, its not very often they make big changes after that unless a huge flaw/bug someplace is found. Have a read of THIS (www.pcworld.com ys.html) |

There is some software called classic Shell that has been released for Win 8cp http://classicshell.sourceforge.net/ Gives you the "start" back and a configurable start menu,though I don't use Win 8cp exclusively I find you don't have to go near the Metro interface Think of Win 8 with Classic Shell as a slightly diff Win 7 |

| 1270504 | 2012-04-18 20:08:00 | Does 8 do anything new for desktop users ? I really liked all the new features 7 had, especially the breadcrumbs trail and the ability to snap windows to the left or right. |
