    ... I thought that you could only get metro apps through the Windows Store?

    I finally got Win8 up on my ESXI5 server and I have to say, it was not worth the effort, well maybo so, I am fully up-to-date with patches on ESXi, but cannot stand the lack of a start button. I know the schtik, we have to accept change. But can't they change things that the user community wants? Like fix the bug that when you sleep a laptop, it sleep consistantly?

    I am waiting for the metro virus that starts shifting those app tiles around like that little cheap plastic tile-puzzle thing.

    How about a desktop app while you're at it?

    I don't even want to use metro on my tablet.
