Redmond has gone absolutely insane in attempting to push Metro on their user base for the sake of innovation and gaining tablet market share. I don't understand how so many Linux devs are following in their footsteps i.e. Unity, Gnome Shell. My primary Linux desktop will never be a tablet and I refuse to allow anyone to turn it into one. I used to tolerate instances where the Gnome devs removed configuration options and features from Gnome 2 siting simplicity because most things just worked. Gnome Shell is an absolute disaster mainly because if I am simply unable to configure it to work for me. My hat is off to the developers from Linux Mint (Cinnamon) and the Mate devs for working to correct this.
