i find modern ui less flexible since you can't use folders. it's annoying how tiles jump around as you try and move things. i like a perfect, consistent order and not big multi scrolling pages. on android i rarely leave the first page.

since i don't like modern ui, i spend most my time in desktop. not as touch friendly but better apps and organization for one who wants more control. i won't even use any of the browsers in modern ui mode.

good thing about win 8 is that you can get the old win 7 feel back. it's just tough with touches sometimes.

i got the ativ 500t btw but thinking of upgrading to the 700t.
