takes a couple of days and then the love begins.
it's also much lighter and faster than windows 7 (which is a good OS as well).
gives life to older systems than struggle to run windows 7.

the only reason that 8 runs better than 7 is that after more than 20 years, MS have finally realised that you can actually optimize code

I liked Ubuntu 12.04 as well... but I came back to Windows because of the lack of apps (one example is ... guitar rig , Guitar Pro and many others)

EDIT: On topic - I will never use Windoze again. After years of suffering, that's one of the best things about not having a boss. I can use whatever OS and software I want. *Insert evil laugh*
