It's not for me, as a PC and laptop only user. I have tried it twice and can see no benefits, only disadvantages.
I have used Windows 3.1, through 95, 98 and XP. Win7 is just so good, as a 'big box' user, 8 does nothing to improve upon 7 for me. I think that Ms are just trying to play "catch-up" again. It did not work with Zune, Vista and all the other ways they tried to emulate the success of others. Microsoft has, over the years, bought up companies that it saw as present or future competition. As a result, the only competition left is too big to swallow, so all it can do is emulate or copy.
The only way Ms will survive, never mind grow, is to free some of the immense talent amongst its engineers and imaginative thinkers, perhaps set up a "Think Tank" to scan the near future and come up with some original ideas that will stand a chance of working.
