Yes, using metro apps suck, I don't recommend using them unless you have a tablet. I spend all of my time in the desktop too unless I need to launch something or do a search then I use the new UI screen, it's a much improved start menu.

As far as not bringing anything else to the table well...I guess nothing critical, but Windows 8 offers improvements in many areas. The new Windows Explorer alone is something I wouldn't want to give up, along with a better and more complete task manager, not to forget the better performance in general over Windows 7. Also for power users everything is quicker to get to (less clicks away).

That said I wouldn't suggest paying full price for Windows 8 if you already have 7. It was worth the $40 upgrade price I payed though and when getting a new computer there is no reason to shy away from Windows 8 like there was with Windows Vista.
