>There is really nothing tangible which compels an informed PC user to 'upgrade' to Windows 8 from Windows 7

There are loads of things! What a silly thing to say. Try reading any article about Windows 8 which doesn't focus on the metro aspect

My conclusion does not stem from articles. It comes from actually using it next to 7, doing the same user and admin tasks I usually do. Without third party software to reign-in Metro it dominates and cripples the experience for a PC use case.

The ONLY thing I wish 7 could steal from 8 is the task manager...
