Why do they do this? This could have all been avoided if they would have just put it in the original build. :anger:



My questions are ....



1.) How is this going to affect those that use StartIsBack?

2.) How is this going to affect custom themer's who will have to then go back and rework everything they have done so far?

Well now the folks over at Softpedia are saying more than likely Windows 9 .... maybe Windows 8.1
Nothing like letting the cat out of the bag before you have all your facts straight.
