I didn't say you could. But the start menu was always one click away. Now it's a hot corner, a click, and typing to find the program, away.

Well except I bought and paid for Start8 and I've been way happier with it installed.

I do not have Windows 8 but just reading this makes it sounds like two methods that are exactly the same?

  - moving the mouse to the start orb == moving the mouse to a hot corner
  - clicking the orb == clicking the hot corner
  - typing == typing

Or just hit the windows key (or Ctrl-Esc) and type. Why do people like to click so much?
