How is windows 8.1 compared to 7 or vista?

Sent from my HTC One X+ using AC Forums mobile app

It's awesome as far as ux and design absolutely love the way everything looks, but desktop usability is much less... You can definitely tell that it's made for touchscreens and portable devices. Overall I don't love it, but I certainly don't hate it. I'll put it this way, if windows 7 was $50 and 8 was $80 I'd buy seven without even blinking.

Not sure if it's my settings or what, but having cannot connect on any account on my PC, which is weird because I can remote in from my work PC.
