Default Any Windows 8 early adopters?

I played around with a couple of Windows 8 desktops at Sam's Club today and was curious if anyone has purchased a Win 8 desktop or laptop yet. The ones at Sam's did not have touchscreen available but did show the tiled active destop and were hooked up to the internet.

Having used an iPad extensively for the last 2 years it was a pretty natural transition to the active desktop.

I will probably replace my 4 year old Dell desktop before next Spring and am struggling with going the Mac route (more $$) or Win 8. The ipad satisfies my mobile needs and probably gets used 80% of my 'puting time. The desktop is for things the iPad doesn't do well and secure storage.

Any thoughts or opinions about Windows 8?
