A few examples that come to mind: The task manager got better. Copying multiple files is handled better, as is the dialogue box you see while that's going on. Window snapping (Win+arrow keys) is pretty great - there were a few other nice Win-key combos that got introduced that I don't really use, related to projectors and multi-screen stuff. The wifi code's better. I believe Windows 8 introduced the ability to natively mount ISOs.
