If I were Joe Belifiore first I would have given an option to users to switch UI between metro and static icons. I know lot of you won't like it, personally I don't like it too. But I have seen many people on other blogging sites say they didn't like Windows 8 and up because they think metro UI is all cluttered, mess and is difficult to learn and there's huge difference between, how they are used to interact with the icons and tiles. I hope you all get it. And yah this is my opinion and I love Windows.
