No tiles suck for the desktop, leave that trash for your phone or tablet where it makes sense. I like having multiple apps on the screen and the ability to freely resize them to make use of my widescreen display. Metro fucking blows, the only decent part of Windows 8 are the parts that are Windows 7. The color theme is trash too, transparency was legitimately useful and their faded in color for backgrounds too often makes things seem to overlap on the desktop. Watching people struggle to use Metro would be funny if Microsoft weren't pitching 20 years of knowledge away so that they can act like they're apple. How about some window controls like every other operating system that is used for the desktop? - *DADES* - This is a signature of my name, enjoy!
