Ditto that!
Those who have done this upgrade have any input for us doubters?
I still like XP better but at least 8.1 is useable. What moron thought Windows 8 would work on a desktop.
You cannot save the update. It is very large. Around 1.3gb
There are workarounds but not as easy as with past versions of Windows.

Have update to 8.1 and 8.1 disk. Boots to desktop. Nice to have some of the apps available. You can easily pin to tool bar and apps windows for your common tasks.
Need to download Adobe reader (non-app) and configure it to use as default on .pdf’s. pdf app is ok but not as versatile as non-app.
Get used to doing split screens so you can use apps and desktop at same time.
The upgrade process is painless and the experience is almost as good as Windows 7.
