Does it? I am currently in the process of downloading after having to force it. If this goes anything like Win8 I am in for a giant whirlwind of fuckery. I will update again as soon as my computer lives.

I said i would return and so i have now.. It's not terrible. but it isn't great either. Took google searches to find device manager. Then my GFX Driver wasn't working properly. All in all i think it's a bit clunky though pretty.

It's not terrible but still, kinda funny how poorly Microsoft managed to program this OS considering how simple it is to make one.

not sure if serious as i really don't know if it's easy/hard. The issues i've seen are more from a user perspective. As it stands mine DOES NOT like to startup. Multiple hangs failures etc and several reboots before it'll actually do it's thing. I started disabling things that run at startup. Came down to the logitech keyboard and mouse drivers. Which according to Logitech and M$ are 100% supported.

The UI has somehow started to grow on me. I have disabled that NSA Operative who goes by "Cortana". It's not intuitive to manipulate things and my biggest complaint about win8 is still here as far as i know. If you associate a file type with a program you can't undo that association. ex if you set a .cfg file to open with notepad (don't ask) you can't undo that.

I am noticing around a 10% performance boost in running some games. CPU temps are about 6-8 degrees higher.

The most annoying thing about it is when dragging windows across monitors it catches due to the "snap" functionality. You can disable this but then dragging a window to the top doesn't maximize it which is worse than the catch.
