Install Ubuntu instead. Windows 8 is awful.
Or Mint, which is based on Ubuntu, with none of that awfully craptastic Unity bullshit.
I dunno about Windows 8.1, but 8 is awful, I have it on a media center box - I don't notice it there, because it runs a single application 100% of the time, but if I had to use it on my laptop or desktop, grr... Everything else runs 7 or some flavor of Ubuntu or a derivative.
