It's where you start every activity and process. "Start to shutdown the computer" "start to run a command" "start to run a program" "Start to change some settings". It in the passive voice describes what you are going to be doing in there: Starting some activity, process, program, change, access, whatever. Start > Programs > Maxis > SimCity 2000 is psuedocode for what I just did. I started a program by Maxis called SimCity 2000 Four Squares in a Grid Button > All Apps > EA Games > Sim City 4 describes crap I'm clicking on in the UI, nothing about what I'm doing. |

To make a real world comparison, I have a single closet in a my room with a lot of stuff in it. Would sticking a "Start" label to say "Start > first aid > bandaid" help that much ? Someone coming to my home could as well just try to open the closet randomly, the more important thing is it looks like a closet that can be opened.
That's where I prefer the Grid button, as it just looks like a button (and it could still look more like a button TBHO)
