test it
Have you tried testing it with "average users"? Tried that already, "violently hated it" is not too strong of a term.
Join it to a domain and you can't run Windows 8 apps as an administrator. And you have to have UAC turned on apparently as far as I could see.
However "average users" noted that in legacy programs the color scheme is a nightmare, for example if you have something that was originally designed to work with Windows classic, it isn't there anymore in Windows 8. Scrolling backwards and forwards looking for tiles, hated that, etc. Getting confused between IE starting up in desktop mode or in the start screen.
Nobody had anything nice to say about it, I gave up.
