from me too - can't see the point of learning new ways of doing the same thing just 'cause it's 'prettier'
But I can't pin gpedit.msc to the classic start menu; and I can't find a way to get at its settings if the start button is hidden.
I've hidden the Start button since Win2000 at least. No the point in wasting taskbar space when there's a keyboard button under your left thumb.

To pin gpedit to the start menu: Right click on the desktop, select "New\Shortcut", as path you write gpedit.msc, click on next and give it a name. Afterwards you can pin this shortcut to the start menu.
The Classic Shell settings can be accessed by the corresponding shortcut under "Programs" in the start menu.
@altae - thanks I'll give those a whirl, I should have thought of them myself
It would be nice if classic shell settings appeared in the control panel. I used to have gpedit there, courtesy of a Brink 'fix', I seem to have lost that in the upgrade.
Done - I seem to have lost most of my registry hacks, no problems as I only had a few - kill right menu key survived.
