Windows 8 start menu what have they done?!

[HotelUser]

There comes a point where you are intentionally trying to slander windows to annoy, or you're just being plain dumb. It's not difficult to realise that:

a) It's not final
b) It's probably a UI test/bug
c) It's probably a programmer screwing around with stuff which incidentally got screen captured because some eejit realised that every tech blog and their mothers and yourself would immediately assume "Oh that's final and I guess this is what windows is like from now on since everything non-apple must be terrible.".
d) You're a troll. Stop trolling.

I will probably end up liking the finger friendly UI on Windows 8 which includes the start menu and button (or whatever they become) in the final release. I just don't like how it looks in this current release

Speaking about being dumb, read the thread.

Yes, I realised that you made many petty attempts in the course of this thread in order to make it look as though you were not intentionally trying to trick members into thinking it was final but you fully well knew when posting that you were trying to annoy Matt and Tom at the same time.

I didn't know Windows 8 was being worked on (im a bit behind) so I guess this is good news.

I know it's obvious it isn't the final build/idea, so I'm hoping some more "ideas" will be leaked/released soon

This start bar is ugly, I thought it was ugly, I posted the thread. I am a Windows user and have said numerous times I'm buying a W8 tablet - so give it a break. I've seen many Apple threads with a negative stint created by many "Windows fanboys" of the forum and it's odd, I don't see you saying what you're saying here there. Double standard much!

1. You haven't

a) Couldn't give a rats ass about you buying a W8 tablet
b) This thread was worded so that it would troll, and probably intentionally. You knew that was ugly, you also knew it wasn't final or similar, you as a web developer should know that stuff in development looks wierd, wrong or bugged because it's not finish. You'd be annoyed if someone said a layout or code of yours was terrible when it's incomplete.
c) You shouldn't buy something which is "ugly" in your eyes. Nor should you say you will buy something before determining the quality.

a) Normally they have a logical justification behind (However biased)
b) I don't think either Matt or Tom have ever created a thread with purpose to troll you.

1. I have directly to you on MSN, "maybe your Microsoft Windows Live Messenger isn't working" (I joke I joke!!)
2. I love my iPad to bits. I also bought an HP TouchPad with hopes of Android, and am buying a Windows 8 tablet. And?

I didn't create a thread with the purpose of trolling anyone. As I said I saw the news on Engadget and posted it here. I've posted lots of threads based on Engadget articles. I can't say I'm surprised that even though I do it frequently, that you only take notice and throw around accusations when it's about Microsoft. Haha! Believe what you want I don't really care - I know why I posted it and I am content

Very ugly Start Menu! I've been using Classic Shell for the past weeks. It seems to be the best out there.
