To all of those people that are currently using the Windows 8 preview, does the new metro interface bug you ? i know its buggin the hell out of me since i'm a PC user with a keyboard and mouse, the Metro UI is more designed towards tablets, but on the PC and most laptops, it feels quirky, fat, and unimaginably impossible to multitask on the PC (i have more of a workstation/gaming pc).
I installed windows 8 on my pc since the first preview edition (and i upgraded to release preview one) and its just made my life harder instead of simpler. most of the settings are now divided between Metro and the Control Panel. i get a feeling that microsoft is trying to turn my hardworking workstation into a gay french singer... or a setup that bruno would like (no offense).
i tried those "look like windows 7" start menu apps, those were great but nowhere close to representing the real operating system, i'm having installing an app to do what my operating system should be able to do!.
i tried it on my lenovo laptop but it was the same, too much time/space consuming and it looks way to minimalistic in a simple way (instead of being apple-like minimalistic in a artistic way), and as said by major game developers such as Gabe Newell (FTW!), from Valve, and even Blizzard, they both agreed that Windows 8 wasn't helping the gaming market either.
a solution from windows would be including a "Disable Metro" option that us working people would LOVE. but i barely doubt that they will include that option, its just like the switch from 2003 Office to 2007 Office, it bugged the hell out of people on where is what, and i believe that it could be the same for windows 8
