I feel it is prudent & timely I bring this to your attention... Forgive me if it's buried eleswhere in the Forum, already. But, it won't be long before the Betas for Windows 8 surface... understand there will be an offering available to the general public. This (below) is expecially nice as it requires no virtual sofware such as Windows VPC, VMware, VirtualBox, et al.

This is a nice option. But I believe it only works on Ultimate and Enterprise editions. Unfortunately most people are like me and have Home Premium.
