Clearly I'm not explaining myself properly, so just ignore those comments.

Useful for a tablet since the screen is so small. But very dumb on a desktop.
That's what I figured, which makes it a bit odd that the PC execution is the same. Considering most people are getting larger PC screens, things like the taskbar grouping and fullscreen Metro seem so odd on a PC.

To me that just confirms that Metro is for basic users.

I haven't used my tablet in...probably nearly a year now because they're so limited.
