I definitely have mixed feelings re Windows 8, especially the reported changes in functionality that are designed for tablet environments.

I guess the absence of a Start Button in Windows 8 means we will no longer have to click on start to make our computers stop.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

But......but......how will we, you know, start things?
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
