The main screen is a place to consume content and run apps. The Desktop is a good place to do administrative stuff.

After just a couple days, I am really starting to warm up to Win8.
My Win8 laptop was just delivered today, so granted, I haven't had much time to play around with it but I'm not loving it so far.

I had to do a 'search' to find a couple of things I use daily (Notepad, for one) and then another search for the power-off button when I was ready to shut it down.

I was on the 'Desktop', too. Hoping I'll have your experience and warm up to it eventually, but right now I'm thinking I made a mistake.
