Sorry, I think you missed a pretty big memo. The Start Menu is gone in Windows 8.

Does this also mean that winbutton no longer gives you access to search through your programs and documents?

No... just hit winbutton and start typing away.

Because you remember the name of every program on your computer, including that seldom-used demuxing utility you downloaded last year.

That "memo" (otherwise known as a rumor) has already gone back and forth, and I have better things to do than baby-sit Microsoft's UI regressions.

Actually, the Start menu itself was a regression. What is it being replaced with?
