With Classic shell, I still have a start button and a menu, but the way I have it configured, if I move my mouse all the way to the corner (which is the technique Microsoft wants us to get used to) then the start screen icon overlays and clicking it brings me to the start screen. I think this is the best way to use Windows 8. It blends the new with the old in a way that enables the most amount of function and choice. That of course, is just my opinion...
I do that too.
The main thing I like about the classic start button is I can click on it & easily open multiple Windows Paint or other programs.
Sometimes I am editing a screen shot & need several Paint windows active.
Being able to SEE what needs to be done is better than explaining it in words.
