reason you have obtained them - why?
FWIW, I agree about Office 2010: we moved to it at work a few months
ago, and I don't _think_ I can think of any new feature it has that I've
actually found useful, and it comes with the ribbon interface (also in
2007 - we moved from '03) that, while not the spawn of the devil many
make out, does mean I've been learning where everything is. (And I still
use kbd shortcuts from the old - fortunately, unlike many previous
situations, they're still supported.) There are (third party) utilities
that give you the old menus back too ... (at least in Word and Excel.)
As for the Metro Apps, I don't really know what they _are_, so can't
comment.

To say that you have no problem dumping them implies that for someNope, not yet. Everything I want and need still runs under XP SP2.
Things like Office 2010 Starter and Metro Apps won't run under XP, but I
have no problem dumping those applications in a heartbeat anyway.
