It definitely looks like an issue in Google Analytics, not a bug on our side. We're
reporting things correctly.
Google Analytics is not reporting Windows 8 correctly for the moment.
Windows 8 users are reported are reported as Windows NT 6.2:

Windows NT 6.2 is what is set by usage and browsers in the user agent. Google Analytics
then translates this into Windows names known to the public.
For the full picture: (a javascript snippet that detects windows versions)
{code:title=http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13487856/get-specific-windows-version-by-javascript}
{
SubString: "Windows NT 5.1",
NickName: "Windows XP"
},
{
SubString: "Windows NT 5.2 ",
NickName: "Windows Server 2003/Windows XP x64 Edition"
},
{
SubString: "Windows NT 6.0",
NickName: "Windows Vista"
},
{
SubString: "Windows NT 6.1",
NickName: "Windows 7"
},
{
SubString: "Windows NT 6.2",
SpecialString: "ARM",
NickName: "Windows RT"
},

SubString: "Windows NT 6.2",

For the full picture, the latest windows versions are all reported as Windows NT in the
user agent, but they differ in the version. Google Analytics "translates" them
into the correct windows names. Google Analytics is simply missing the
"translation" for Windows 8 so far (js code that does the very same translation
