I was at Costco and spotted this on all the demo machines for windows: http://distilleryimage6.s3.amazonaws.com/b97e94147e0311e29a8...

Someone had installed "classic start menu" on all the machines. These machines are offline, so I'm assuming it was an employee tired of explaining the Windows 8 Metro UI. It says something about the UI switch in Windows 8.
