I agree. I've used Classic Shell and Start8 and the latter is just better. They update it often with new versions. I'm very cynical about what (and when) MS will deliver a "Start Menu". Remember the press about 8.1? That was supposed to be the return. Next is was Update 1. Now it's Update 2.

I just stick with Stardock Start 8. Brings back the Windows 7 experience for $5 bucks.

A quick bit of research reveals it isn't coming in April's updates at all, but a future set. God bless the rumour mill!

Could someone point me towards this mythical start menu, because I have the update installed and I am not seeing it.

So the Start Menu is coming back to Windows 8!

Is this a new direction from MS, actually listening to what certain subsets of users want? If it is, then I'm impressed.

I doubt very much they will bring TechNet back to us also though....I think that interferes too much with what they're hoping to do with Cloud OS.

My 2 cents.
