 So beware the built-in keylogger :) As I read somewhere it may collect and send your key strokes and part of user files - just for better testing and your better experience from final version :)

A few days ago I was forced to use company NTB with Win8 and it caused me psychical trauma :P I can't belive how other people can use such ugly and non-ergonomic GUI. I was fighting with improper font rendering in some apps that caused the fonts looked very fuzzy. I tried tunning cleartype but it didn't helped (it works on sub-pixel level but this was much worse). The display is fullHD so it has enough DPI to display sharp text - in other apps it was OK. I could only change some global scaling/DPI that made it look better but graphics object became very tiny. I didn't see this issue on XP-W7.
Also I don't agree MS idea of unifying OS to looks same on a phone and on desktop. Every platform has it's specific usage and should have different ergonomic design to get best of every platform. It's like trying to make an universal car that must fit to everyone-bullshit...
