I've been running windows 8 for about a year now, upgraded to 8.1 yesterday finally. It is a very fast OS, and coupled with the fact that its installed on a SSD hard drive my reboot times are right around 15-20 seconds.
All you have to do to make 8 totally fine is install an aftermarket program named Classic Shell. It puts the normal start button back in the bottom corner that everyone is used to. Windows 8.1 put a start button back there but all it does is bring you back out to the start screen. Classic Shell gives you back a REAL start button.
