There are so many ways to activate the Start menu on the Windows Surface. Windows 8.1 now has so many ways to get to our beloved feature.
I noticed six ways when playing with a Surface in the Windows Store.

The Surface isn’t too hard to use and feels hefty in a good way, but I’m not about to ditch my Macbook Air for one just yet.


I have counted the mouse click and finger tap as separate ways to invoke Start.
