I have been watching closely the comments of mainstream tech writers coming up with all these rather convoluted add-ins , process changes etc which when you analyse it for what its worth should have been the starting point for Win 8 development and included on Day 1. I am pretty tired of mainstream technology companies failing to listen to what the mainstream raft of users want and instead choosing to listen to the one percenters who if they had their way would force their views on the world. Windows has spent years educating all its users to use a startup and shutdown process - removing what is familiar and comforting is plain dumb and giving very unhappy users a good reason to go to Apple . Ballmer has to go and go now .
