Windows 8 has been in the developer or pre-beta stage for a while now and if you’re still wondering how to get it you can get it here.

If you are actually a developer and want to create programs for Windows 8 then obviously download the first option which includes the developer tools. This is only available for x64 (64-bit) computers.

If you are just interested in seeing what the look and feel of it will be and just want to try it out then just download the developer preview in either x32 or x64, whichever suits your computer. If you don’t know which you computer is then don’t even try to install it!

I would adviseeither installing it in a virtual machine or as a partition instead of installing it over your main operating system as not all drivers are available and not all programs will work either. Just install it as a partition, try it out for a while and see what you think. If you have any feedback you should contact Microsoft as they want to base Windows 8 around you so you could make some real changes in it.
