I'm able to attain Windows 8 for free because me being in the computer science program at my university. So, with basically no risk other than using up my time, is it worth installing 8 in replace of 7? I really enjoy 7, but I've heard that performance wise, 8 is a lot more optimized. However, I have heard that the UAC gets in the way a lot for things like changing file extensions, having programs open by default when you boot up the system, etc. As far as metro goes, I can get used to it, it basically functions the same (i can hit the windows key and start typing and it will search like 7 for an example) as far as I have seen. Anyone care to input something about it that will help me decide? Thanks.
