Samsung adds start menu to its Windows 8 PCs
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Tue 28th Aug 2012 18:18 UTC
Windows "Windows 8 changes a lot of things about how the operating system works, but one of the features Windows traditionalists will find jarring is the lack of a Start button. Although the button's functions are still present in various places, users may miss its easy click-and-start-typing familiarity. Well, Samsung's bringing it back. The all-in-one PCs Samsung unveiled this morning are the first Windows machines to sport the S Launcher, a simple widget that acts just like the old start button." This is not from The Onion. I repeat, this is not from The Onion.

Not according to the dictionary, but as usually you have your own set of definitions. :-p


Right, because the more relevant definition here would obviously be "a usually wooden pier used as a landing place or moorage for boats" or "the part of an animal's tail left after it has been shortened".

Let's leave it at that, because it so meaningless that Apple probably won't put any time in it.


Ahahahaha, when has that ever stopped them before?

I just don't think "a row of icons" defines what people refer to as the/a dock.

If that was the case you'd have a lot of docks and a useless dock process running.
