looks interesting. I like that they added more personalization options...beyond that though I doubt I'll be using much of the changes in the video.

no start button never really bothered me after the first day or so.....I never really launched many of my programs from there any way. Can still right click down there and get even easy access to control panel, device manager, etc. which is nice. If there is a boot to desktop option in 8.1 I...

I liked Windows 7 a lot but I forced myself to switch because I need to know how to use Windows 8 very well for my job so I just installed windows 8 when it came out. I find myself in the desktop view mostly for what I use it for and the other interface is ok and I really don't miss anything...

Depends on how much you wanna spend extra on switching to the 3930K system and how important each of those uses are to you. Either will game fine and if it's just very light editing I'm sure it'll be fine too but if you want the highest performance and don't mind spending a couple hundred extra...
