Couple of topics. Games. Cannot play many of them, as they were designed to demo a touch screen user experience. One of the big shiny things with Windows 8 is support for touch screen interaction on the desktop. It is one of the cool things I cannot develop on a 32 bit system and cannot test on my old laptop. You can work around the touch screen controls with the arrow keys, but it is not the optimized tool for the job.
Browsing. Mixed experience at this point. If you launch IE from the Start screen, it is a very different experience than from the Desktop. The browser you open from the Start page is optimized for a simile user experience, possibly optimized for the touch screen launch experience. None of the menus you would normally use are present in this browser. Add-ons do not seem to be available in this experience.
