I did have a go with Windows 8 on my brother's new laptop and absolutely hated it. I would prefer to keep Windows 7 is 10 tries to shoehorn you into the Windows 8 method of using it. But reports seem to suggest that it's OK. At least there's a start menu.
It's not the appearance that matters to be as much as much where to find everything. I use KDE on Linux but never liked Gnome, which was a shame.
Another problem I have is dual booting with UEFI with Windows on the first hard disk and Linux on the second. Reinstalling Linux used to be a breeze but last time I ended up wiping over the hard disk. I wouldn't want the upgrade to Windows 10 to mess that up!
I'm going to have to make a lot of backups before I proceed.
You kidding, gnome 2 was an amazing desktop. But now I suppose KDE is the best choice.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
