I am the same, the vast majority of the applications I use are desktop ones and I find Windows 8 is a progression forwards.

If you have made a genuine investigation and trial use of the Windows 8 Start menu as it is delivered and find that does not suit you, but that the add in sorts it for you, then all credit to you as far as I am concerned. However, I, and many others, have found differently, and I know many users never make the effort of trying before pronouncing their dismissals.

As I said I don't much care what people decide to use in the way of Windows versions (or other operating systems), that including whatever add in modifications they wish to apply to them. But my opinion is that ones own choice in that should not be stuffed down everyone's throat as if it was necessary for good order as is happening with many mentions here of Win 8. The choice is personal only, it is not based on fixing a deficiency.
