Does this mean my Yahoo! mail will work again in Windows 8?

Windows 7 forever, that is, until molecular computing comes out where I can interact with my OS via thought control.

In max 6 months time Windows 8 will be completely more safer and more stable than Windows 7. All for the better.

Writing "more safer" doesn't inspire much confidence in your opinion.

I like seeing lots of bugs reported and fixed. Everything has bugs and it is reasonably transparent to acknowledge and patch.

Right. I'm curious how do the team at Tom's work. Do you guys just post at will or do you not collaborate and plan ahead what needs to be posted [strike]AFTER[/strike]BEFORE proofreading it?

Proofreading? QA? What's that?
STRAIGHT TO PRODUCTION!

Holy crap, but still no option to remove the useless Start screen and give us a way to one-click to our dozens of installed apps (formerly known as Start menu)? MS is so fricking stupid. Win8 could have been a great hit if tehy had only made these two options configurable. But because of this it's instead know to be another VIsta and a total flop. Power users hate Win8 and they influence the commonn folk, power users write the reviews!!!! Wak us MS, you should have known this.

I mean seriously, you can keep bitching about it endlessly, or you can just install a start menu and zip it already.

The point isn't that we can't install such a start menu replacement, it's that we shouldn't have to!

Did Microsoft recall it -- that's the only real fix.

You don't have to install Chrome/Firefox/Opera either, yet you do it, no questions asked.
But that's fine, hypocrisy is a good quality to enrich your character with.

Microsoft doesn't make mistakes - they make service packs.

There is no such thing as a bug in a Windows OS - it's an undocumented feature.

It's amazing how they'll preach that you need to download and yet they act like installing a start menu is an act of Congress. Meanwhile other advanced users just set things up to their liking and get on with life.
