Unless they bring back Aero and glass, or at least get rid of the kindegarten flat, boring blocky look and feel, I won't be considering any move back to windows. Other things like a task manager with alzheimers, a gutted explorer, and a lack of accessible controls for configuring things without having to resort to registry hacks don't motivate me to consider windows any more either
Windows 8 should have been sold in two formats; a desktop (Aero-like) version, and a tablet (Metro) version. Windows 8 works well on tablets.

With 4 rigs (AutoCad) I sleep with my Wn7 discs under my pillow.
My 71-year-old sister in law was given a "Notebook" with Win8 -- her very first computer.Maybe MS market research dept is asleep or fixated on new-toys.
When I showed her my Win7 with Classic Start and explained how it works. I am now her very best friend.
If Win7 is outselling Win8.x ... MS cannot blame the tablet/android market.
