Some of you may love the new Metro UI for Windows 8, others may hate it, but either way I bet you all want to try it out at some stage. Of course the only way to experience it properly is to grab yourself a copy of the Windows 8 Developer Preview and then install it. I’ve put together a nice little guide to install Windows 8 in a virtual box on your existing Windows 7 machine which you can find here. However the issue with installing Windows 8 in a virtual machine is that unless you’ve got a fairly high spec system, it’s not going to perform very well.
