for MS to re-instate basically the Win 7 desktop will be a mega admission of failure on their part. Heads will roll in Redmond.
The rumor is that they'll add boot-to-desktop as an option, disabled by default. If they do the same for the start button/menu, they can talk it down by saying something like "while Windows 8 was mostly a consumer-targeted release, the new Windows 8.1 has value-added features for the business market, such as options to enable certain legacy behaviors to ease transition".
