Anyone planning on trying Windows 10 Preview tomorrow?

Maybe on my laptop, but definitely not on the sp3

This is only a guess but the only person here who may be able to pull it off without a big issue, (or 2), is @jnjroach

I'll be glad to be a guinea pig if anyone can answer my question about the recovery utility: will it restore to the original factory state if you've partitioned the drive for dual boot? As long as it will, Win 8.1 makes it fairly easy to restore a machine from backup, so...

Win 8 key resides in the BIOS, so worst case scenario you'd have to download a windows 8.1 .iso and do a full format reinstall.

What do you mean you don't have an external DVD drive?? They're like $20 >.>

Just snagged a 512 Gig SSD from newegg for $190, so I have 2 spare 240 gig SSDs. If I like what I see of the preview, the next step is the Surface.

I'm going in. If I don't make it back, somebody tell my wife that I love her.

The recovery partition will be untouched. If something happens is the recovery image will be always available at the Surface support website.

I will try the new version as dual boot option tomorrow.

I might give it a shot on my SP2 that I haven't sold yet :-D

As I did with Win 7 & Win 8 Previews, the Win 10 Preview will be installed in a VM. I'd never install a preview (Beta) on a machine I need/use on a daily basis.

Dusted off my Yoga 13 and will run it there. I'd forgotten how big and slow that thing is.
