Similar experience here. I've got Windows 8 on my main computer. When I first installed it it felt odd but I honestly thought I'd get used to it. Nope, not yet. Every time I go back and boot up my desktop (mostly only used for video games), I'm struck all over again by how much more comfortable it is.

Win 8's UI is just. . . eeech. A year later and I still catch myself repeatedly slapping the cursor against the middle of the right side of the screen wondering why the hell it won't give me the charms bar.
