Not one less than the other, my point.
Well, from your viewpoint, anyway. And I respect that.

But there was still a desktop in W95 and the introduction of the new Start Button/Start Menu instantly took Windows from confusing to very intuitive.

W8 reversed all that, doing away with both the familiar desktop and the Start Button/Start Menu. The missing Start button/menu and desktop was so sorely missed in W8, it sparked a whole new industry spawning popular programs like Start8, Classic Shell, Pokki and others.


I think we can at least agree that W8 was a step backwards, not intuitive, and had a steep learning curve.
