Falo Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I thought I should download win8 from Toolkit 1.4.8 but was directed to a page with no downloadsat all (I think).I only found how to buy win8, no link to download it.But maybe it's just me who don't find it :-( If it is there, where? /Falo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I actually don't think that Windows 8 RTM has any official downloads. The ones that were offered were for the beta.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falo Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Ok, thanks. I just thought that you could download and test Win8 like Win7 if you wanted.I'm a bit curious about it after all negative critics I´ve seen everywhere. /Falo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually there is 90 day trial option, only downside is you cannot activate it afterwards and must do reinstall. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj554510.aspx Once your 90 days are up there's no upgrade route to a final release: the software will simply stop working, and you'll have to create a fresh installation of a new operating system. You'll be able to back up your files, of course, but system settings won't be transferable to final release versions of Windows 8 - even for those who are getting hold of the official Enterprise Edition at launch.

Ok!But at least you can test it in a VM for a while :cap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
