Gotcha. I can relate. It took me a long time to move to Windows 7. Moved because my laptop gave up and I had to get a new one which came pre-installed with win 7. There was no point in downgrading it to XP. I admit to feeling uneasy about the new UI for a few days but then I grew into it. One thing that still awe me is how stable it is. In the past half a decade, I only had one BSOD crash!!
Also on a similar note, a few months back I did upgrade my media center machine from XP to Windows 8. I can can vouch that Windows 8 feels a lot lighter than Windows 7. XBMC+Windows 8 is great combination.
