It's not all bad
Microsoft made the mistake of releasing Windows 8 to the desktop before the tablets. They should have released the tablets first. When you work there, you might want the features on the desktop.
I've already got the Classic Start back and never look at the tiles. The OS loads and boots fast. Runs great on older lower powered notebooks, even better than Win7.
I've not run into any application issues except for IE10 not being recognized by some web sites. Then again, there is Chrome.
The security and refresh of the OS without wiping the user settings is a great plus.
Microsoft should make an install for Business or person, with business you get the Start menu, nothing hidden, all details, not live tiles to distract. Then the home user can get the ADD related features. They should have done that with Vista on. Really make a Pro or Business version.
