The learning curve for Windows 8 is actually quite small. I have several relatives, including one who's never owned a computer before, who are able to pick it up quickly and do all of the tasks they wish.
Again, you keep referencing these limitations, but you have yet to explain what limitations you are talking about. You've already suggested that you can only run one app at a time, which isn't true. I've said it before, and I'll say it again...if you don't like the Tiled UI or the "apps" then don't use them. It's a simple as that. I could go an entire day of using my ultrabook without every once seeing the Tiled UI. If I want to, or use some of the apps (which there are plenty I've found useful or entertaining), they're a button press away. I can install any and all programs I need to use as well, such as my web dev stuff, Office, etc., and use them in a standard desktop environment that we've had for years. That's far from what I'd call "limiting".
