A new start for Windows 8.
The Microsoft Build event is kicking off in Anaheim, CA this week, so we're expecting lots of Windows 8 related news bits.
Before the conference starts, here is one new tidbit: the Windows 8 start menu. Microsoft has not officially talked about any of its changes in the start menu from Windows 7 to 8, but you can see below that there's been some tweaks that draw from Windows Phone 7.

The new start menu first popped up in Microsoft's demonstration of Windows 8's native ISO and VHD mounting. Hopefully we'll know much more this week.

Yeah Start Menu is for noobs, they should scrap it and go back to a command line interface!
I don't get it, Microsoft...
I really hope there's the option for the Windows 7 start menu as well.
That sounds quite possible coming to think of it... I hope that's the case anyway.
