I have Windows 8 and I can't help but agree that it is pointless for traditional desktop PCs. It was probably worth the £20 upgrade for the few nice things like Netflix Super HD (I don't think it does it through Chrome) and a faster boot time
I also do think that it would be better for touchscreen laptops or hybrids, which I do think are a genuinely good idea. Wouldn't it be good to actually have a semi-continuous user experience over many devices. Use the "Metro" apps when using touch, then go back to desktop mode for Steam and the like and using the new start menu to take advantage of good keyboard short cuts
