Windows 8 isn't terrible, it just takes getting used to. And the under-the-hood improvements (appreciably faster boot..) are worth dealing with the silly UI changes.
I got into the habit of simply hitting the windows key and typing when I want something from the start menu, so that workflow hasn't changed at all (just that the start menu is fullscreen). Beyond that, you can always hit Win+D to drop to the desktop from anywhere, so it's pretty easy to treat it like Windows 7 with a silly fullscreen start menu.
