It looks correct. As a forward looking notice, the 8.1 update will be free to existing 8 users (I'm using the 8.1 preview now and it's a nice improvement)

In general, Windows 8 is hated.
Have you played around with it in a store? And read the reviews from verified owners, at say newegg, ect...

if you don't really have to buy it now, wait for the 8.1

well apparently 8.1 update is going to be free for all who already have 8, so unless 8.1 going to come out at a cheaper price than the current 8 oem, why not?
