- Hot corners: fail. MS needs to extend hot zones. Finding the exact point with the touchpad is sometimes tricky. I can imagine the horror on multimonitor configuration.
- I actually like the start screen. It's clean, and it responds to typing even faster than Win7 start button. Two minor problems: 1) you need to clean up icons after every installation and 2) it doesn't shows everything when I'm typing - I need to explicitly select "settings" after I type "mouse", for example (it's tab - down - enter, not a big deal, but still). Windows 7 start screen displays all find results at once.
- Keyboard is your friend: Win + c for charms, Win + q for programs search, Win + w for settings search. Learn these three shortcuts and you'll have less angry fist shaking.
- Metro: I really hope that the next year will bring us laptops with touch screens. Until then, metro applications aren't very useful when you have only mouse and keyboard.
The rest is, more or less, the same as in Windows 7.
