Thanks, Gov. I'm the one that submitted the white pixel bug and this helped.
Also, worth mentioning the dot isn't solid white. It doesn't appear when using a non-composited theme, and it takes the window border properties of your current theme when using any Aero theme. It will also appear when Transparency is enabled; it's simply not as noticeable because the dot is slightly transparent due to reasons just mentioned.
(PS: Yes, the dot is in the screenshot. You didn't look close enough.

It's too late to pull back the Metro name; it will always be Metro to me. Plus, the design language is still called Metro on the phone. Plus pt 2, calling it the Windows 8 design language is not a good idea. "Metro" divorced the ui language from the product which was nice. If you don't *really* change it for Windows 9 you'll be stuck. The "Windows 8 UI Language for Windows 9" doesn't really roll off the tongue.
Good tip about removing the searches. Thanks Larry!
Did Bing it On a few days ago and it was a draw. Don't remember my search terms so I tried it again using searches from my history to remove expectation bias.
This time: Google
Such a small sample doesn't mean much and honestly the top result on each page was close to if not the one that was dark blue. I think on some I picked the side that presented different types of media (pics + text + youtube) hits.
Bingiton is not available in my region. The link redirects me to bing.com. :(
The AppData\Local folder has a Location tab in its properties. What are the pro's and con's of using that to relocate the folder?
