Win 8 handles resources much more efficiently. That is, if you get a new machine it will likely have a solid-state drive. Startup and shutdowns are very fast under Windows8. It handles the solid-state drives very well.
The biggest complaint people seem to have is about the user interface being so different from what they're accustomed to. There is no doubt that Windows8 has some user interface weirdness. This is because it is attempting to transition people from the windows interface of the past to something less busy.
