It's nothing revolutionary but they have tidied a few things up. The main changes that make the transitions less jarring are: 1. If the computer uses a keyboard and mouse (rather than a touchscreen) it will default to desktop mode. 2. In desktop mode, the start button brings up a menu, not the full screen Start thing as in Windows 8. 3. In desktop mode, the "Modern" applications can now be opened in a window instead of full screen. This is my experience from testing it in a VM on a desktop PC. Tablets will do something that looks more like Windows 8, and I'm not sure about touchscreen laptops.
