Ugh, why? He was going in a good direction starting with 7 and 8's success is still to be seen... I don't understand why?!

Yes, yes, that's exactly what I mean... Sorry if that wasn't clear. But yeah, Metro apps are fullscreen apps so at the back of most people's head pressing escape key will "close" or "minimize" it

Why are the drones close to Iranian Airspace anyway? If it's above international water and airspace, I'm sure it's fine for anyone to go around and fly their stuff. But I just have to ask the question, WHY?! Is it just because they can? What a bully.

I don't know... But that seems like a pretty good question! Why were we sober?!

I agree, but instinctively we just have to try out the escape button because we don't see any "screen cues" that tell "hey do this to close". Being used to regular desktop programs, we don't simply "open start menu to exit an application" or "drag the program down"

In the mail thing... She said exactly what my mom said when I let her use Windows 8 on our main computer... And I personally agree with their sentiments. Especially with the "It's not easy to get out" or that "pressing escape doesn't do anything"

Yeah, the Start Screen is a slight mis-step. I was actually slightly disappointed when the gadgets disappeared in Windows 8... I mean, the Aero Peek function to see the desktop would be nice to see what's going on at the back of your application (Win-,) but alas the keyboard shortcut is there but for what use? See…

Definitely agree on that one! hahaha

Device Manager? Put the My Computer icon on desktop... rightclick > manage > click on device manager....

Dual Monitor... A hi-res wallpaper spanned across the two monitors (image from NASA) also included is Fences 2.0... What you can't see is WindowFX 5 (both two apps from Stardock)

Adding Adobe Flash updates to the "Microsoft Update" system will vastly improve security and is a much needed advancement. I hope they get Oracle to add Java in there as well... And maybe Microsoft should start to open some API hooks that can allow third-party developers take advantage of Windows' own update system to…

Well, it IS cheap... I work for McDonalds Canada part-time and we have these old people buying from our store EVERYDAY every single morning... Not surprising because they have to eat and do their best not to spend so much on food. A small coffee (with free refill) and a muffin? roughly 2 dollars... And they get the…

Well, let's see how it goes! I'm gonna be pretty excited myself to see an updated iOS interface... Maybe something not truly abandoning it's design principles, but build from it and improve without abandoning and "discrediting" its predecessors. Not an iOS fan, but I'd be interested to see how they'll gonna make iOS…

I do hope so

A bad idea if you do it and show everyone, "Hey, there's a hidden key over there"

I grew up in a developing country (Philippines) and I grew up drinking spring water (pumped old school from the ground, manually, by hand)

I know about the snipping tool, but if you intend on capturing the whole screen anyway, the keyboard shortcut is much more convenient because no need to fuss in opening another program, then saving the image. It does it for you. For example, you could possibly use it if you have a full screen program running... Or if…

Yes, yes you can still do that.

Hating is different from trolling BTW. I would type a long response and reason, but I think your statement is well enough and I'd say the same thing anyway.

Nope, only Giz...
