I checked in to the Stardock website to see how Start 10 was progressing. I was very pleased to see that the public beta was available. I downloaded it and installed it. Wow. I can't be more pleased. Windows 10 in all its glory with a proper start menu. I don't really understand Microsoft's need to bastardize the start menu. Apparently, in their collective minds, it can't just be simple and elegant like Windows 7. Windows 10 works very well. But if I could rip out the the u/i and replace it with the Windows 7 u/i I would do it in a heart beat. Start 10 does the most important thing: gets rid of that stupid looking hybrid Windows 10 start menu and replaces it with the best feature of Windows 7.
Big BIG kudos to the Stardock team. I'm deeply grateful and immensely thankful for this fine piece of work.
