Sorry I was not trying to say don’t use it (I have been using it since it came out), I actually prefer it as well. I was just trying to point out that the lifecycle was likely extended because Win8 was not as widely adopted as Win7, forcing MS to extend.
I would recommend 8 to anyone as well, if you don’t like the new menu you don’t need to use it if you don’t want to, I haven’t touched it in months (even though I have no problem with it).
