    Neither are, still unsure about whether I want to get a Windows 8 tablet or not.

    Classic Shell is a good UI avoidance system, that and I rarely use the current start menu anyway since I can pin all of my programs to the task bar.

    I did notice that I don't actually use the start menu that much and only to search for what I wanted to open/find.

    But in terms of searching I personally only ever use keys to do it and the functionality via keys is identical between Windows 8 and Windows 7 so even that is a non-issue I feel.

    Hmm, have been thinking about it, since I have a touchscreen all in one computer thing, might be handy and I've heard its good for touch screens. Not sure but definitely might look into it

    Yeah, I read an article about it then decided to see how much I actually used it. Then noticed I often press the Windows Key on my keyboard and then start typing away. You can do that in Windows 8 even with the start screen so it isn't much of a bother to me personally as well.

    I'll be avoiding it like the plague tbh, the UI looks as if it's really not made for the mouse and keyboard.

    That said, if things have improved since the consumer preview then it might be a plague worth catching.

    Still upgrading tho? I sure am... There were loads of bugs which have since been fixed since the release preview.

    Tried it already and it'd be hard to get use to. Isn't it primarily for tablets anyway?
    I won't be upgrading just yet nevertheless
