Windows 8.1 is pretty much the same as Windows 7 on the desktop. Just set it to boot into desktop and use traditional (classic) windows apps. There are several things about it that are better than Windows 7. Boot time, task manager, search, etc. Oh, and it supports touch very well. It may not seem like alot, but it's pretty natural to scroll with touch, swipe through pictures, zoom stuff, etc.
BUt, keep the Fud going... remember how much EVERYONE hatted XP when it came out, and everyone said they were sticking with Windows 95?
