One click, then type the first 3 letters of a program or control panel setting, document etc and it pops up right there in front of you.

Also the 'fullscreen by default' philosophy for 8-specific applications is fucking retarded. Also a task bar is essential on something like a Windows machine which will run out of RAM and run like shit if you leave everything running all the time.

Windows 8's new interface should have been a taskbar with a search box embedded in it.
