In desktop mode it is almost exactly like Win7 but looks a little different and doesn't have a Start button. So I just installed a free Start button that acts just like the Win7 one from here: http://www.iobit.com/iobitstartmenu8.php

All in all I'd say it's a pretty good upgrade for the price. It even seems to run a little quicker and it freed up a bunch of space on my system drive.
Grab Start8 and it's exactly like Win7's start button if you really need that. I'm just enjoying the performance boost.

People think the metro UI is forced upon them, it's so not true. It's just a glorified start menu and has some benefits.
