Windows 8 (and really, 8.1), is certainly a learning curve. But really, if you don't want to use the new "Metro" or "ModernUI" or whatever you want to call the full screen "new" apps, you don't have to. Just think of it as a really good version of Windows 7, which is what the desktop is.
I've been running Win8x since the beginning -- it sort of comes with the job. I can say that I frankly hated it at first, and still am annoyed by some things. But overall, I now "get it" and actually like it.
