What do you think of Windows 8?

    In the past days I have been interested in Windows 8 but it's still a developer preview so I don't want to risk it, instead I am using windows 8 themes and some Metro alternative.
    Did you try windows 8? do you use it as main or just for fun, I am just interested to know before I do my move, because I am too lazy so if I move it's gonna be my main OS. also I wanna know what's so special about it, I mean it have Metro but what else, I can't find some good source.

    I don't like the new Windows 8 for desktop PC's and laptops. It's good for touchscreen tablet PC's.

    Apparently the best would be to wait for the official releaze. But it seems to me that Windows 8 won't disappoint me and I will recieve wonderful impressions of its using.

    I just bought a brand new desktop computer last week and it came with Windows 7. I had no idea there was a Windows 8. Not sure if I will upgrade or not, I'm loving Windows 7. Its more than good enough for me at the moment :)

    I have been using win7 for two years now. I like it except I download a trail of some software that was supposed to help when windows crashed. However during the trial period the software crashed my system and wouldn't let me recover because i didn't buy it. Just happened I had everything backed up on cds at the time. Also when win7 did an update it crashed my system again and I lost time getting back up. So I have not used win auto updates since then. I am wondering what will happen since I don't do the updates anymore.
    Any ideas?
