Just spent an hour or so upgrading.
Never get the hour back.
As far as Im concerned, its still schizoid and a total mess.

Yup, I use classic start, all they seem to have done after all the fuss is to stick a start icon on the desktop task bar it was there before but is moved a little to the right!That gum you like is coming back in style.0
