    the worst is that some people like so much that crap, pointing better as Windows 7 :laie:

    Windows 8 will sell only for that so low price, and a lot of third party solutions to have start menu back.......

    Wait a second, a project that was not making any files available to the public was served with a DMCA notice?!

    WTF! It seems MS is really against anyone customizing Windows 8 or adding back removed features. What's next? They gonna send stardock a DMCA for making a start menu? lol

    I'll continue to hope someone figures it out.
    I'll be sticking with Win7 for quite awhile anyway so there is no desperate hurry to get it.

    Theirs always a small chance Stardock does something similar to Aero as well.

    No I just downloaded it, and when I opened up cmd prompt and then clicked on the program. Cmd prompt's window borders instantly became transparent.

    OK, but only for CMD, so far. Might be a beginning. Is it completly transparent or more opaque style (semi)?

    Win 8 RTM does not have full Aero, only hidden Aero lite.

    I have a GPU with 4GB so that claim above is BS.
