Got two copies of 8 Pro in the end, can't really say no for £25 per copy, heh

Took some getting used to, but it's basically Windows 7 with a new UI slapped on it for touch/gesture screens.

After installing the Classic Startmenu addon (freeware, yay) and putting back the quick launch bar, I feel right at home

It's definitely faster than Windows 7, on startup and shutdown.

I'm growing to like it (minus the stupid Metro thing, which thankfully, I no longer have to see or use)
