Answer» http://wiremunch.com/windows-8-1-to-bring-back-start-button/ Looking forward to checking out 8.1 myself. Most likely wont be available to beta demo, so I will have to play with it for free when new computers hit the stores with it to test dive its functionality and return of start button. Was really thinking I was going to have to wait for Windows 9, and stick with 7. I am happy with 7 and XP and have no real need to upgrade. To me, the OS would have to have some feature that is not available in the prior OS that is a must have to spend the cash on it. Although I have been tempted to sell my 3.5 year old Toshiba Netbook running Windows XP Home on an Intel Atom 1.66Ghz CPU and 1GB RAM, for upgrade to a newer Netbook and if Windows 8.1 is way better than 8, maybe I will buy a new netbook come christmas to self and have new hardare and new OS since XP will no longer be supported come April 2014.So far Windows Blue's "Start Button" is just a larger version of the taskbar hotspot in Windows 8 given a win8 style logo. That is to say, the Start Menu is not coming back. Good riddance.Without a start button... A PC becomes an over sized Smartphone.

Most of my programs are either on the DESKTOP or pinned to the task bar. With Windows 8, it really simplifies it for me and adds some cool functionality.Geek just wants everything to be a smartphone now...

Apparently they have been reading CH and saw the minority dissension. MS will let consumers have a say. http://hothardware.com/News/Confirmed-Windows-81-Will-Bring-Back-The-Start-Button/ I found over a dozen posts like the above. Which goes to show many others believe that it is only that start button that makes a PC different from other devices. Quote from: Geek-9pm on April 30, 2013, 03:25:46 PM No! It is MS that wants every PC to be a smartphone lookalike.No. In much the same way that the commonplace existence of 3-D Video accelerators meant that DESKTOPS started to use 3-D Accelerated features outside of games, so too does it make little sense not to take advantage of the dropping price of touch-screen monitors by implementing support for them and eventually discarding the stop-gap of the mouse.
