removing aero was nice, eats up to much RAM anyways.
aero is cool, but not necessary for tablets.

i have a half TB internal dedicated to win8 just for playing around. i reserve my 1.5 tb internal for win7, and use as my primary. haven't really messed with switching to win7 desktop style, guess i could screw with that too.

i have dual monitors but i've been thinking of upgrading to touch screen. they have some monster ones at microcenter i've been drooling over for the last six months now.

the beta image has been fun, but i also agree. unless i get touch screen desktop monitors or a tablet i'll probably just pass this one up.
