stevesi was responsible for windows 8. he was fired for that poo poo. the people that replaced him have also been fired. when you play the game of windows you win or you leave with a multimillion dollar severance package.

The button returned with 8.1 I just found a video of how it worked in the original version of 8 and it's indeed insane that they actually shipped it in that state, but I guess that was the peak of their bizarre effort to force desktop windows to a tablet interface.

don’t forget that in the release version of 8, the target to bring up the start screen was 1 pixel. in the corner.
|
# ? May 13, 2019 20:34 |
|
and the right side share menu with the power options? also a 1 pixel border down the right edge. no mouse sticking either so if you had two monitors, good luck
|
# ? May 13, 2019 20:35 |
|
you could also bring up a preview of your open windows with another 1 pixel border starting from the top left corner.

no power or shutdown options in the “start screen”, you Had to bring up the right edge popover.

I don’t see why writing mmmMmmMmM 3 on a slant is any better than anything else. I assume it looks they are holding it like that because the hinge has little strength and it would just flap around otherwise.
