It's warwagon....did you expect a funny part?

[muratoner]

wow it switches so fast...i wasn't very keen on getting windows 8 but this changed my mind.

I mean, usually I understand the point even though it's not funny... but this time, I don't even know what the point is? What's it trying to show here? >.<

[n_K]

I think it's something to do with the wooden background, and it being a monitor not a floor.

If Metro is the new start then you will constantly be going back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and between your desktop and the Metro UI.

All good and well, but did you see how smooth it switched between the metro and desktop side of Win 8

Looks good too me. :)

another way to cause seizure! :o

I barely ever used the start menu in Win7, so that wouldn't change much using Win8

Also if you are going to use a lot of desktop apps, just pin them to your desktop or taskbar, problem solved

(back and forth)^?

The point he is trying to make (which is so not true it's far from funny) is that Metro/Immersive users will be jumping back and forth between the StartScreen and the desktop.

It's hilarious. It's a joke without any punchline. /s ;)

[Spencer R]

What an indecisive user. Usually people actually...do things on computers.

I mean, I know I for a fact just love clicking the start button, exiting out of it without doing anything, then clicking again. Actually, this is even MORE stupid, because theroetically, the start screen is providing a CRAPLOAD of more info when compared to the start button in windows 8, so they COULD be popping it up fairly frequently, but most likely because they're checking 1) email, 2) facebook, 3) weather, 4) RSS feeds..etc... all at once...which dosn't strike me as an insult to the OS that this "joke" is supposed to be.

[The_Decimator]

I think he's talking about how the Desktop isn't going away so we can all stop complaining. I think so, at least...

I use the start menu all the time, definitely the above video shows what i would be doing.

You should have seen the fit he through when DOS went to Windows, I'm guessing he was in diapers but his mom still grew tired of it!

I am in some agreement, I ran the Win8 for about 3 months as my primary OS. I am willing to try and see where MS is heading with this and reserve judgement till the next beta.

But yeah, I think I will love the tablet UI, and it will be strange on the desktop. It might even be a big mistake. But I will wait and see.

The wallpaper is wood, that's another word for boner!

Metro gives me boners.... how did you know :blush:

I like the wallpaper, icons can't hide, like on other wallpaper.

Well that was a waste of time. I fail to see the point in this thread.

Very nice system tray on the right. 25 icons.

Thread reported for no sense at all and just plain spam.

This is not spam. In fact this is how I envision a typical metro experience. Why wouldn't it be just like this? I mean you click start and "THAT" pops up.
