Main reason I've been putting it off at home is that the new EULA has a couple things I don't like.

1) You can't shut off automatic updates in the "Home" version (which is what I believe we all get for free ... not sure of the "pro" or "enterprise" versions will be free upgrades).
2) They can disable any "unauthorized" hardware. In an effort to stop piracy they can shut down hardware that they don't like ... I don't like them having this power.
3) They can delete any "unauthorized" programs. Not to defend piracy but every time I've seen any system use such draconian anti-piracy methods they always end up destroying files and deleting programs that you have every legal right to be using but somehow don't mesh with what the OS thinks is "authorized".

I'm curious to see if uTorrent got deleted in the upgrade on my home machine... If it did, I can always roll back to Win7 pro...or Ubuntu...
