Do you prefer Win 7 to Win8? I can't stand the Win8 default interface, but with 8.1 and a few setting changes, was able to get rid of that.

Windows 7 is a solid, mature operating system. I don't think the same can be said for Windows 8. It seems to me that Win8 is to Win7 what Vista is to XP: not worth the upgrade.
I actually think the improvements in Windows 8 are good, if you can get past the interface. I use 8.1 on my "main" non-gaming rig. I do still use 7 on my sim racing / gaming rig though. There are a ton of 3rd party 'solutions' to returning the start menu to the desktop - where I spend 99% of my time. The good news is that Windows 9 will be losing the 'charms', and the start menu will be coming back. Not enough of a reason to upgrade to 8 from 7 though (I did because I got 8 for $15 promo), but I wouldn't go out of my way to avoid having it either.
