I do think it amusing that for Joe User, going from Windows Xp or 7 to
Windows 8 currently requires more retraining than going to $linux
running Cinnamon, xfce or KDE.
I've already had conversations with people who have gone to 8 and are
wondering how the hell to do stuff. It's not an upgrade path I'll be
foisting on my users any time soon, despite having Windows 8 licences
available ad-hoc.
