Samuel:

As several other commenters here (and a few million others worldwide) have noted: Windows 8 is another Vista.

In this case, the problems are in the whole concept of touch and swipe in a few million programs that are mouse and/or keyboard centric. This includes all normal office applications such as accounting.

Try to find a dealer who builds his/her own computers and was far-sighted enough to buy a bunch of Windows 7 licenses while they could.
