Windows 8 and Cross - Verdict?

I know there are many threads but there doesn't seem to be one with an overall judgement on this combination.

After my problems - viewtopic.php?f=358&t=28817 - I actually had to carry out a restore to factory default as despite how that thread ends the problem came back. However, a friend has an unused version of W8 and I'm tempted to move on to that.

What's the view on W8+Cross? A good combo or no different to W7?

Were you using W7 before? Do you think W8 is better for Cross?

Yes, in fact I do.
Think about the Metro-Surface what you will,Win8 still is the better performing OS.

The only issue you can run into are poorly adopted drivers. But you can't know without trying. ;)
