that's a personal opinion.
running win8.1 on a couple of pc's and a surface pro over here, and am
very happy with it.
especially with the fact that win8 will sync most of the win settings to
the cloud, so stuff will travel much easier between machines.
and the Modern UI/apps are great on a tablet.
8.1 is a lot better OS than 8 when it came out.
and all the complaining about the removal of the start menu and lesser
productivity on the desktop is just nagging because MS finally got back
into the game, and had the balls to start changing things that should
have been done years ago.
and no... the desktop isn't going away anytime soon....

If you really feel like reinstalling an OS, reinstall windows 7, you
will get a performance increase because it's a fresh install and you
will get all the fun of reinstalling all of your programs but you
won't get the crap that is windows 8 in the process. Don't waste your
time or money on windows 8, it's just not worth it.

Any increase in performance?
Strange issues with Softimage?
