Ok Chalex. Let's say I'm on my desktop on Windows 8 and I want to go to ATK. Normally, I'd have to click on the Chrome icon on my taskbar and then click on my ATK bookmark in Chrome. OH GOD SO HARD. Now in Windows 8 all I have to do is click on the start button to bring up the Metro interface, and then click on the ATK icon! OH GOD SO MUCH EASIER!
I have like 100+ bookmarks, how is that meant to work on the Metro interface? Do I have to scroll through over 100 icons to find the site I want to go on? Does that list also include all my programs? You said it also contains the latest news, stocks, and weather. Seems like it's going to be a clusterfuck of text and icons am I right? From what I've seen you can't group up icons so am I going to have to scroll through 5 pages of icons to find what I want?
Also, seems to me that websites only have a graphic for the favicon, are websites going to have to make a new large icon for display in the Metro interface? Either that, or all of these icons are going to look butt ugly with either no image or the small favicon.
I'm sorry Chalex, I know you work for Microsoft and really want to make us think that Windows 8 is the next best thing, but you really have to stop talking like a member of the Microsoft sales department, it's getting quite ridiculous. Metro is going to be awful for desktop use and I think you're the only person here that disagrees with that.
EDIT: Just saw a comment on the YouTube video Chalex posted, seems rather relevant...
