dont install the consumer preview , windows 8 RTM build 9200 ( final ) ( professional) is available easily now , i have it running on my pc , in dual boot mode ,
the gadgets are gone , which i HATE.
without a touch input device this thing is pretty much USELESS .
its a good new interface , but it is demanding a LOT of compromises , that a typical windows user would never ever accept .
its a treat for mac users , but then again , no mac user would ever dare to break the Apple - eco-system and join the windows league.
untill unless they remove the compromises , and return back our own old tweaking functionalities , windows 8 seems like a NO-GO .
