    Downloaded it last week, but yet to install it. After a very brief look at a mates installation of the previous release, nothing really interested me much. Probably great for touch screens though.

    I wiped my consumer preview of 8 and went back to 7 in less than 3 days.
    Nothing in it to interest me. Others maybe.

    I tried it on my tablet pc but went back to win 7 the next day as the drivers were to immature.

    Metro GUI a bit clumsy but with use it'll get better.

    I'll wait till after it's release or SP1 before I have another look.

    Same as you guys, still running the old stuff:
    - one Windows '98
    - one Windows 2000 Prof
    - three Windows XP

    all are networked and running well. If it ain't broke . . .

    I'll probably wait until SP1 or 2 before trying it seriously.
