None of this should hurt PC sales, especially when you factor in the continued availability of Windows 7. (That being said, it probably isn't providing people with a compelling reason to upgrade their PC.)

I disagree. My main beef with Windows 8 is that they force a tablet UI on our desktops. I have a large monitor and I certainly can handle more than one open window at a time, something windows 8 apps do not support. As far as I am concerned, this iteration of windows is an abomination.
