The Windows Start button is where it has always been from Windows 95 through to Windows 8... the Windows Key on your keyboard. The "start button" was only a shortcut icon to that function.

Clicking the Windows Key brings up the Start Menu. Clicking it again closes it. The ONLY difference is that now the start menu is a full screen instead of a slide up menu.

And like the slideup menu in previous versions, the "Start Screen" is customizable to have whatever you want on it.

I'm not sure what the big deal is. The button was not removed, per se, the ICON SHORTCUT of the start button was removed, the "Start Menu" is still there where it always has been.. on the Windows Key.

If you use a multi-monitor setup, the independent task bars per monitor actually rock in Windows 8 (something Windows 7 lacks). This functionality alone has significantly increased my productivity and workflow using a triple monitor setup. Each Monitor has its own independent task bar.
