Been playing with 8 for a couple of days now - posting this from 8 running on Sun Virtualbox. Seems fine so far, but the opening interface (not sure what it is called) seems completely unnecessary. Of course I prefer the old way, most do. Familiarity is comforting.

The new (desktop) interface, is much like an internet browser start up page on google, msn, etc. I never used a start page in the past so I'm not sure why MS thinks I want one now. I assume the average PC user enjoys the home pages with all the latest news, weather, email info staring them in the face. I like my system bare. Nothing on my desktop except a few select programs pinned to the task bar and a google search bar when I hit the Firefox icon.

Flop or fab?
