I have been using Windows 8 a lot recently and one thing I have learned is that to get the most out of the operating system you really need to get comfortable using all of the keyboard shortcuts. Unlike the traditional desktop interface of the Windows 7 world, Windows 8 has both a desktop and an apps Start screen. This means that when apps get installed they usually appear on the Start screen. You launch apps from this screen and you use the desktop work area to manage your files and work with your programs.
