You don't really need Windows 8
Tried it on two machines. One was my own HP mini trying to install Win8 preview, the other one client's fresh out of the box Toshiba with factory installed OS surprise. Run into compatibility problems, screen resolution error, program crashes (DriverMax) and "Access denied, see your network administrator" issues to the point where I declared that Windows 7 is my Windows Last. When going to put my HP Mini back and the restored Windows 7 did not boot I discovered the cute feature that prevents any other operating system booting on Windows 8 hardware. No, thank you.
