If you miss the Start menu, then you should hold off on buying a new Windows computer until next year at this point. ZDNet’s sources say that Microsoft has shelved its plans to bring back the Start menu to Windows with the next update to Windows 8.1 and will instead likely bring it back with the launch of Windows 9 in April 2015.

Man throws rocks at $400,000 Lamborghini Aventador for ‘street racing’
Filed under:
Okay, while we certainly can’t condone street racing, we also don’t encourage any type of road raging vigilante justice like this rock throwing Lamborghini Aventador incident caught on camera on the streets of Playa Vista, California.
We can only speculate on what caused this Lambo to be stoned, but based on what we see, the angry rock throwing man (shown above) clearly had enough of the $400,000+ supercar and it’s owner driving around, as he yells “Keep racing,” while pelting the exotic with rocks.
Click here to watch the video for yourself and judge who’s the bigger jerk. Either way, this isn’t a safe or smart way to react. Even if the Lamborghini was driving recklessly, call the police instead and let the law sort it out.

Excited for WWDC 2014? Watch Apple’s previous 10 WWDC keynotes while you wait
Apple has been eerily quiet so far in 2014. So quiet, in fact, that it hasn’t released a single new product in the past six months. While there aren’t any blockbuster hardware announcements expected at WWDC 2014 — there should be one mysterious product announcement, though — Apple fans are finally in for something new as Apple shows off the next huge updates for its software platforms.

We’re now just hours away from Apple’s big keynote at the annual Worldwide Developer Conference in San Francisco, and we’re starting to wonder if there’s anything left for Apple to surprise us with this year.

A Reddit user with a throwaway account has posted a series of images showing various OS X 10.10 features.
