Today at its Build conference, Microsoft Exec Terry Myserson announced that Microsoft is bringing the traditional start menu back to Windows, along with the ability to run Windows Store apps in their own Windows. He also said that, for OEMs, a future build of Windows 8.1 will be available for free and that, right now, Windows tablets under 9-inches will get Windows 8 licenses for free. In a brief demo, Myerson showed a desktop screen with Windows Store apps running in their own windows and a traditional Start Menu open on the desktop.
