    There have been some botched sites which claimed to have Windows 9 for download some months back. I am not going to download anything that has to do with Windows 9 until the Technical Preview is released on September 30.

    Tks arseny, then it's still a assumption that either start menu is hidden, or it is simply not present in the current build 982x, for whatever reason.

    This was my story: I saw Brad didn't mention anything about start menu but talked about other features(he even saw Cortana "with his own eyeballs"), so asked my friend about it ... "LOL, it's not in the current builds"..."It will be in Preview?" .."Beats me, maybe, don't know now."..."Can I talk about it in forums?" .... "Why not? Every MS people knows about that".

    OK, leaving for China in about an hour, if there's any post for me, I shall try to reply tonight. :D


    Good luck with your "Sept 30" expectation. :D

    Have a nice trip to China.

    Thank you for wishing me well. I have always have confidence on my Windows release expectations.

    Figured. That's what I was saying and had been told.

    Start Menu is still on track for preview release if anyone was wondering.

    If WTP for Enterprises won't have Modern UI that would mean that some Control Panel options and OS functionalities will be ported back form Windows 7 or made from scratch.

    Or, will Modern UI be implemented so tightly with desktop that it won't matter?

    Tks Brad for finally decided to share this info, although (some) OEM people had even known about it for quite a while.

    Could you clarify slightly further? : Does winmain builds has it? - yes, no, or you don't know. Tks.

    Btw, clever move to say "vNext". :D

    why boring? its the new start menu.. basically the same as windows 8 but with the old win7 stuff on the left, of course you can pin every app like 8.1 in the start.. and create a bigger start menu like windows 8 that wont open in a "new page"

    the new multi desktop function is the biggest update in the sistem, you can make more than 1 desktop and multitask between each other dividing the screen.
