This is highly topical for me, as I just started using a Windows 8 tablet today. I can run all my office apps and I’ve got all that one-touch connectivity.
Very nice!

I have to agree with the above post. My wife and I purchased 2 HP 23 inch touch screen PCs to replace our 6 and 8 year old desk tops running XP. As this also resulted in our having to replace Office 2003 with Office 2010, we were expecting bad experiences. What we have found is that Windows 8 has been easy to use once you learn the various shortcuts. Plus, it is good at self-diagnosing and correcting problems. We also found the move to Office 2010 quite easy. Both of us are long time users of PCs.
As to crashes and other experiences listed, we have had none. I use Firefox and it works just fine.
On the other hand, we spent some time at Best Buy researching tablets, thinking that the Surface Pro which runs the full Windows 8 might be a good choice for tablet use. Wow, the weight of it is staggering compared to other tablets, and it is larger as well. Plus the price. Same goes for the Apple Ipad as to price. It looks like we will be purchasing two Samsung tablets but have not decided as to full size or mini.
