here, the most recent check for new updates, along with the date when the last items were installed are now displayed for easy viewing. Nothing hugely monumental, as I said.

There is not an iota of doubt that Metro is here to stay. Always wanted to use a word like iota. Your thoughts, people, if any, on this small but handy addition to the operating system. Slide them in the usual place for all to see.]]>

  • Nice addition, but this update has been coming for awhile and been pretty highly anticipated. With all of that in mind, I kind of view it as a little bit of a letdown.

  • This is a good addition. There wasn’t a major change like everyone was expecting, but this are some nice little improvements. I still say they still need to keep marketing and educating people about Windows 8.1. They still don’t have enough people out there telling the truth about the OS.

  • I read somewhere that they pulled the Start Menu from that update at the last minute.
