    It's not bad, start menu is gone (it might take getting used to along with moving your mouse to the corner of the screen to see the metro interface, it didn't bother me), I'm testing CS6 also, I personally think it runs way better than windows 7.

    You can download and use their RTM copy directly from MS, it expires after 90 days. You can download the Office 2013 preview as well. Task Manager has been nicely redone, quick reboots and shutdowns along with start ups. This is from a 5 year old Intel dual core by the way.

    The Office ribbon interface is now part of windows explorer, more applications to connect to the internet life, windows app store

    If you install and keep Chrome as your default browser, for some strange reason you can only use the IE desktop version not the Windows Metro Version

    Not a bad release if you ask me.
