I just have one question and maybe I'm missing something, so please correct me where needed? I've heard this stuff about not having a start menu. What do you mean by that because when I press my Windows key I get a start up list just like with the 7. Oh, it's not exactly the same, but it mostly is and although it doesn't say edit search or whatever it did in 7, if I just start typing what I want as soon as I press the Windows key, it turns search on. I'm going to try Outlook as I really don't like TB much because of issues. Really wanted to use Windows Mail, but not since it won't echo anything when am typing in a new message with JAWS or NVDA, I won't be using it and hope that gets corrected with an update.
