http://www.extremetech.com/computing/153928-windows-8-1-will-bring-back-the-start-button And as that website clearly says "Don’t get too excited, though: As it stands, the resurrected Start button will still open the new, tile-based Metro Start screen. For now, there doesn’t seem to be any plans to bring back the old Start menu — for that, you’ll still need to install a third-party Start button/menu app." So Windows 8.1 probably won't stop people wanting to buy startisback anyway Ok Well i just buy 2 pc license
