Windows 8 Public Preview under test

Windows 8 is here to stay so I decided to download the (free) Windows 8 Public Preview and give it a try.

You can too, just start from here http://preview.windows.com.

It will ask you for a valid e-mail where it will send a temporary product key.
Before installing, check all requirements, though:

  • a speedy processor,
  • a graphics card supporting DirectX 9 or more
  • 2 GB of RAM
  • 14 GB of hard disk available

My test setup PC is based on… my Mac under Virtualbox 😉

A full report will follow very soon…
