Hi there.
I only tend to use the search for finding local programs like say Ms word without having to scroll either vertically or horizontally - so the Bing thing is irrelevant in my case.
If you want an Internet search stick to your browser and set the search engine to whatever you want.
I do agree though if you want to operate is DESKTOP MODE only then the whole metro stuff should be "Zonked" and a menu like W7 bought back. But I agree the thing should work in "Hybrid" or even in "Full tablet mode" for those who want to use their hardware that way and have a simple way of switching between all 3 modes.
Actually apart from the start menu going back to W7 does make the OS seem a bit "dated" now -- but that's people's choice - run whatever OS you like.
I'm quite glad Ms is giving us something to play with at No cost to ourselves other than posting on to the forums !!!.
Cheers
