In my opinion, this is the best redesign since ever .

I always recommend that Members have a full backup before updating, https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/backup-wordpress-to-dropbox-tutorial and they check the changelogs of their themes and plugins to ensure compatibility or test on a dummy siterubix site. I prefer to wait for the #.#.1 update, which will incorporate any bug fixes. There's nothing worse than hitting the update button only to discover you've ended up with a non-working site, especially if it's your primary earner. :) Rich.
Thanks Rich. I've updated my site and it seems to be working fine. Since it's the first version of WordPress 3.8, it's a good idea to backup before updating.
Hi Jeffrey - I like the dark design, and also that you can change it to a range of colour schemes now (think it was only 2 before).
I like the new font - much nicer on the eye - and I know they have made changes to the widgets, and general accessibility - which is very good.
The new 2014 theme though - I'm not sure about that yet - all the "stuff" that we've usually seen on the right (recent posts, tags etc), are now all on the left and in black!
Maybe it's just something to get used to - good to know what everyone else thinks - recommendations here are dark text on a light background...
All the best, Mark
Thanks Mark for sharing your opinions. I like the dark design and new font that make the dashboard looks neat and comfortable.

So far I've only updated a test site like Rich says. I still need to really spend the time and go in and check it all out. Not sure about the dark back drop to everything yet. And I haven't even taken the time to look at the 2014 yet. So much to do.... ya know?
