What is the benefit? The name? Call control panel "Settings" and be done with it.

You could phase it in. "Control Panel Settings", then "CP Settings", then just "Settings" and Bob's your mother's brother!

Can someone explain to me the difference from Control Panel to Settings? It seems like more of a name change and of course, the UI will be different, but won't it effectively be a hub to control your personal settings just like control panel?

I use to keep all my windows MGMT tools on a custom MMC screen. So organized.

That is good news - I assume they are done with the replacement as they announce this, otherwise they are just stupid. The problem is - why did it take this long time for a trillion dollar company to archive it?

If they are they haven't pushed it to general release yet. Unless someone can point out where in the settings app I can adjust my audio device speaker configuration.
