NEW YORK -
One thing users may notice right away on Windows 8: where's the start button?
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer says, "You've got a whole screen as a start button."
He says when the start button was first introduced, people had to get used to that, suggesting they will get used to the new tile format as well.
