I'm still waiting on the year of the Linux desktop.
I hear barely any positive comments or talks about the Windows 8 enhancements, but a lacking competition makes companies force stuff on end-users they don't really want.

Prior to that you might want to test some candidates that you think are promising in a virtual machine or as a live system.
