The Start screen on the other hand is limited to 75/25 just like he says.

having multiple windows open at once is the entire reason for using some kind of windowed operating system. the automatic 50/50 was the best feature of windows 7 that i actually use every single time my machine is booted.
seems like even the full desktop version of windows 8 is still made for tablets. it will quite honestly slow me down in my work.
