I'm sure you will like Windows8.
I know that I didn't like XP before I used it, and I didn't like Windows7 before I used it too.
I have 7 at the moment, and when I go back to XP, it now feels archaic.

Hardcore
Thanks for the replies everyone, i went and got the Windows 8 netbook, to be honest im just sick of looking around at PCs, I admit to being stuck in my ways and resistant to change, so im a little cautious.
I always had issues with every windows program up until 7, ive had a few PCs with windows 7 ,me and 7 got on very well, and i never found myself throwing the PC on the ground in frustration (this may or may not have happened before ,lol) nor did i ever have to get "assistance" from my nerd mate.
Windows 8 so far seems OK, i had to get rid of all the Microsoft Account login rubbish they try very hard to make you use, windows 8 wants to download stuff all the time (suggested music etc) so had to stop that from happening as well.
Once its set up to NOT download stuff, without permission, and i can bin all the rubbish apps that are more suited to teenagers, ill be a bit happier (lol) but after that, really im left with no real benefits i can see, other than a Touch screen PC.
At this stage, if my PC did not have a touch screen, id say windows 8 has no real noticeable gain over 7 for me,(ionly had it a day) but i do really like the way the touch screen works, it adds pleasure to PC usage, some of it is novelty factor, but other actions, such as browsing the net, is great , especially good for laptop users when lying on the couch and you cant see the keyboard

I've heard it's good for touchscreens and useless for desktops.
