Windows 8 Marmite thread... Because you either love it or hate it.
As per title, the Windows 8 Beta is slated to be released tomorrow for general public preview/use.

Did/Does anyone:
  • Participate in the pre-beta/dev preview?
  • Plan to give the ARM version a go?
  • Plan to install the soon-to-be-released build 8250 on their main rig?
  • Have any expectations/precognitions worth a mention?

I can't see any of my component manufacturers as having driver support listed as of yet - But was desperately hoping to migrate my main rig over this weekend, as it's well overdue for a full-format...

Are there major changes to the core OS that would prevent Win 7 drivers being used? Although, that said - given how good integrated driver support was for 7, I can't see MS backtracking for 8!
