I don't understand how you can say it doesn't work for keyboard/mouse users when I'm a keyboard/mouse user. I have Windows 8 installed on two desktops and one laptop, and it works wonderfully with all of them. No touch screens, 90% of the time I'm in "metro". So how is it broken for...

I really don't know where Microsoft is going with this one. The two interfaces don't mesh, at all, and you're constantly being forced to...
I was homeschooled, so we got the news from my mom, who got a call from my aunt after the 2nd plane hit. Turned the tv on in time for the 1st tower to fall.. Pretty scary couple of days. I just remember crying when the second tower fell. I was an architecture nut growing up and I loved the...
