I haven't tried Windows 8 on a desktop, yet (I couldn't get the consumer preview to work on any of my machines or in a VM). But I did switch from an Android to a WP8 phone and couldn't be happier. In that form factor, WP8 is exactly what I want and the UI is really well designed. I haven't used Windows since XP (and keep an XP VM for any work that requires Windows), but I'm actually quite interested in trying out a touch-enabled Windows 8 laptop based on the positive experience with my phone. Edit: I should add that my main environment is Linux running dwm in monocle mode on a 17" MacBook Pro. Noone could be more surprised than me that I would be intrigued by a new UI coming from Microsoft.
