ha, oh look another revision no one asked for.

i had to use this recently, and its all kinds of useless now. the 'search' didnt find my installed app, the 'all apps' list is a click or two in, and then absurdly inefficiently styled.. the win98 start menu was easier for me to navigate.

Are you genuinely arguing that this start menu is better?

Many here do, others feel like they are the gold standard. And no, I did not if you actually read what I said.
