Download Windows 8 Developer feature is activated at last by Microsoft. As you know that Microsoft finally gave the access to download their latest OS Windows 8, and promised that a developer preview would be released as well. The good news is, not just developers but now everyone can have access.
I am really sure that you have been waiting to get this on your hands, and now Microsoft is giving us the chance tp get the deleveloper preview the same that Microsoft gives to Developers. Of course you can download windows 8 for free and without requiring a registration. This is a departure from what Microsoft has done with previous versions of Windows, where developer previews were only available to a narrow range of users. With this move, Microsoft is trying to get more users in the game as early on in the development process as possible indeed.
There are three versions of the Developer Preview are being made available today: a 64-bit version with all the developer tools built-in, along with sample Metro apps to get developers started; a 64-bit version only with the sample apps and without the tools; and a similar 32-bit version without any developer tools. All of these three versions should operate in a similar fashion, so unless you’re aiming to develop Windows 8 apps, you’ll probably be fine with either one of these.

The requirement for the machine is the same as Windows 7 which are : 1GHz Processor, 1 GB of RAM, 16 GB of free hard drive space and a DirectX 9 graphics card with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver.Keep in mind that in order to ty windows 8′s multi-touch support you will need multi-touch supported hardware.
As we know the previous version of Windows is Windows 7 and Windows 8 is a next generation of Windows 7. Windows 8 has new usage paradigms that are unheard of any other windows platform, such a full-screen tole-based user interface and an app store. Microsoft has pledged to keep the Developer preview fresh by issuing periodic updates. So be aware of new updates from Microsoft as they will release new updates for the next official launch.
