The clusterfuck of an operating system that is Win 8 is Microsoft's way a trying to get into the tablet market by making the frankensystem of a mobile os and desktop os into one.
As you have found out, it strongly favors the mobile/touch device user experience much better than the desktop one. Sure, it is usable in both but at a compromise.
Windows should be about functionality and work which usually involves moving files and folders around, copying them, and other things that a mouse is best suited for.
Touch screens are great for flipling the pages of virtual books and web pages however, that is usually not work and more pleasure activities that one would do on a portable tablet device with touchscreen.
Microsoft is tying to get everyone used to this new OS that you will use it on the desktop, tablet, and then they hope...Windows phones as well with the live tiles of metro that everyone will already be used to (or rather forced to get used to since all new computers come with Win 8 installed)!
The dirty rotten bastards! Damn them to hell!
