I don't think we need yet another OS-bashing (as I've seen too much of it in the past), but the thing is, not everyone can afford a tablet or a touch-enabled screen (and most are more acquainted with a computer as being controlled by a keyboard and a mouse, along with the traditional Task Bar that's been around since Windows 95).

To the uninitiated, the UI would be very confusing at first. To those who like command shells and tweaking on the side (including me), "where is it in there?"

Given its touch-screen nature, I think 8 would be more appropriate for tablets while 7 would work well for traditional PCs.
