So what do they do to help sales of their WindowsPhone junk? They shove the very same mobile phone UI on the desktop
While it's already bad on a mobile phone, it's even far worse on the desktop, where it doesn't belong at all.
Compounding the usability nightmare is stuff like that they have disabled the taskbar, so trying to go back to a regular desktop is problematic.

It's once again one of these times where I'm really very, very glad that I've stopped using Windows a good while ago, so I don't have to deal with this idiocy anymore
I actually like Metro a lot... for touchscreen devices. It just completely fails on a mouse/keyboard driven system.
