Thank You Microsoft if it weren't for you a lot things wouldn't exist now. Hey sorry but I'm beginning to think I'm bi-polar.

Start button... What a progress!

Microsoft is the Best, Windows 8 is the Best OS, and 8.1 is even better. and by the way the article is about Microsoft, I bet it hurts a lot to others to see real good thing in action.

Windows need to get rid of the damn metro screen for desktop PC, it's so counter productive.

Why do they even bother trying? Windows 7 is the last half decent OS they made. But since switching to osx I am much happier and will never go back to windows anyway. So in other words, Microsoft is dead to me.

"Once you go mac, you never go back" is all I need to point to the real boss here, so I agree!

you are both wrong I got a Mac also an iPad and the surface is cool it's a PC in a tablet with USB for external hard drives/CD's or what ever but it's only good with touch screen so for a regular PC forget it.

So you're telling me that windows 8.1 comes with the start button and when you click on it, it redirects you back to the Start page...? Um.. there is no change. I rather stay with my 3rd party start button that when you click on it, it pops right up just like windows 7 start button and you choose where to go.
