Anyone considering switching to Windows 8?

Just got my Surface in the mail and have really enjoyed the interface and interaction model. I don’t think it’s for everyone as it is built for the multi-tasker in mind. What I mean is that it requires the user to keep a model of what applications are open or in-use.

This may seem minor, but to anyone who designs software, one of the hardest things to expect out of a user is for them to commit things to memory.

Have you tried Windows 8 or Windows 8 mobile? What have you thought?
