34. Best feature in windows UI, you can load any of your commonly used apps in 2 clicks or less.

Can't believe how shite the new XP start menu was when they actually increased the time it takes to access stuff. Fvck knows where they get their design team...

0. I use hotkeys to launch my most commonly used programs.

It looks cleaner because you can literally have NO desktop icons. I don't get it either, it's totally stupid and unintuitive.

23, 11 on the taskbar, and 12 more in the addon.

what's the point of quicklaunch when you have the magic windows key on your keyboard? if you need something in C:, open up "Windowsbutton" + R, and type in C: and press enter....so much faster

some apps, such as office apps, can be run straight from the run dialog, e.g.: to start word, you type in : winword
