Windows 8 Consumer Preview

Ok so I'm giving Windows 8 a wherl. I could not wait for it realease because I was using Vista with no support for surround in NVidia and no patch to counteract so I could wait no longer and I'm been running benches and demos and HL2 so far it is the best OS I ever used.

I had a bad experience with surround and the release preview win 8. when on the start slate menu, the two side panels were not displaying the tiles instead they were greyed out, but the center screen was fine. and only the tiles were grey. possible driver issue though because turning surround off stopped the issue, i have since reinstalled vista.
