I found it very easy to go from iOS to Android but quite a bit harder to get some simple tasks done on Windows 8 and IE on a touch-device. I had a Microsoft employee at a Best Buy store helping me with finding a PSU as the Best Buy employees were overwhelmed and I watched him using Windows 8 but didn't keep up what he was doing on the screen. I eventually figured out IE which is considerably different compared to what I'm used to on Windows 7 - but it was constant trial and error to do what I wanted to do.

As far as customers go, there were a few people playing with the Windows 8 touch devices but most people seemed more interested in tablets. I think that it's a good idea for Best Buy to have a dedicated Microsoft person in the store to show people how to do the Microsoft touch stuff because it is so different from iOS and Android.
