That's fair enough Spoffle, but none of those things really jump out and grab me and make me want to put Windows 8 on and bother to get used to it or bother installing third party software for a Start Menu that I already get after a Windows 7 installation.
I used to hate Windows 8, but upon reflection that's far too harsh as on a phone or tablet, it's great to use (but I feel the desktop is a bit crap on a tablet). I just... don't really love it either.
You can have w8 look and feel just like w7 and never touch the start screen.

Nope, looks like a tablet interface without the touch screen functionality.
tbh 98% of the time I don't even need to open metro UI, and I use my pc all day everyday....
you can easily use win8/8.1 without the need to open metro UI if you really don't like it.
It's not bad ,all about customisation,here is mine on Win8.1 Pro x64 RTM and yes all my games run fine even Steam/Origin ones.

Remember with Win8.1 you can boot straight to the old desktop UI,

Hey mate, any chance you can point me in the direction to where you got these wallpapers from? Preferably in 1920*1200
All the cool kids hate 8 and thinks tiny little filetrees in a poxy small menu is the pinnacle of UI design.
So cool.
