Well, I can't relate to that at all. Getting rid of Areo Glass doesn't bother me a bit. Not only do I not notice it's gone most of the time, but when I do, it's in a distinctly positive way (no more 'blurry' border backarounds, having to make sure you take screen caps against a white background like a full-screen…

The Mormon Church is virulently anti-gay and has spent MILLIONS of dollars persecuting, attacking, and denying rights to gay people. And you think *we're* being mean? Excuse me? They deserve all the crap they get, and then some.

...which doesn't seem to work if you've killed Explorer, since Windows-R is an explorer function?

You need to give it a bigger chance. I didn't care for it at first... it took a few weeks before I "got" it. And now I get frustrated when I go back to Windows 7, because Windows 8 is just better. Windows 8 not only works well, it works great... admittedly after a bit of configuring and tweaking to work the way you…
