I have now returned to this country from malta and i have installed the 8.1 beta. My first impression is that when those of us asked for a start menu we did not quite ask the right question so Microsoft decided to do as we asked.

This means we were given a half way house that works but is not really what we asked for. I will try it over the next few days and see if it works. If not its back to a copy of Windows 8 with startisback and the updates turned off so i dont get 8.1 forced on me.

BTW on a separate subject has any noticed that no matter what you do you cannot stop the Bing desktop update showing up in updates EVEN if you tell it not to show again. Bing desktop is a major piece of crap and Microsoft should be ashamed of themselves for making it.
