I like the Windows 8 UX pretty much. I feel very comfortable with the horizontal scroll which is, imho, totally natural and in some sense more effective than the vertical scroll we got used because of smartphones.
Perhaps we're crazy, but at Theneeds we believed in Windows 8 and we released our app [1] even before iOS and Android... let's see what happens ;)
I tried it on my desktop for a few weeks but I just couldn't handle it. It was really a terrible experience for me. I could see how it would work on tablets though. I went back to Windows 7 and probably won't upgrade again.
