beaker Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Its slightly less annoying than the previous versions. It seems a bit snappier, but I'm running it on the newest core i5 HP elitebook with 8 gigs of ram and an SSD (which benched at 500meg/sec on this laptop) so that may have something to do with it. I don't see much of a difference. It seems easier to go through open programs, but I still haven't figured out how to close anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(like opening the charm menu) then just right click and select close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
