Welcome back!!! What's up with the badge of shame?
I know, I forgot my wallet that day.
I have UAC turned on on my home machine since I flattened my home machine. I'm turning it back on on my work machine today. I give. Thanks for the response guys! Glad you're back.

ALAKAZAM! I give you Mark Russinovich:

Sorry Gov, but you (MSFT) absolutely DON'T care how users use your Windows. You FORCE them to use what YOU (MSFT) think the user should use Windows. Windows 8 is the best example be forcing the users metro instead of giving them a choice.
[02:20] - Rebooting takes too long. How to troubleshoot.
Use xbootmgr from Windows Performance Toolkit
this captures the complete reboot (shutdown and boot). Look what takes long time. maybe you override the pagefile with zeros which slowdown shutdown.
@MagicAndre1981 don't interpret your views as those of all Windows users.
I prefer metro and think its going to be great. Remember when 95 came out, so many people spoke out and wanted to keep the 3.1 style interface.
@Dark_Halmut
sorry, do read your nonsense before posting it? Where do I FORCE YOU to NOT use Metro? I only want an option so that I don't have to use it, because it is ugly and slows down my workflow by 90%.
If you like working with Windows 8 while doing a handstand I respect this, but NEVER force other users to work the same way! And this is what is wrong with Metro. The FORCE to use something which slows down everything for MY WORK. Btw, I never liked Win3.x and was so happy to use windows 95
Sorry to hear you dont like Win8/Metro as much some others. The swing for me was when some one (I think in a c9 video) said, 'Oh yeah, Metro is just the Start menu but more powerful'. *penny drop*!
You totally can kick back to desktop (which is where I spend most of my time). All the old tricks are still there, my fav being WinKey+"anything" to search for "anything".
I am loving Win8 and think the guys at MS have done a great job.
