Windows 8 Review: Yes, It’s That Bad
August 16th, 2012Update: Microsoft Let’s Anyone Try RTM Version of Windows 8 Free for 90 Days
Spare drive or partition gathering dust? Bored? Glutton for punishment? Maybe you don’t have any other choice but to deal with it…
In any event, here you go: Windows 8 Evaluation Download Page. Note: Enterprise edition. No way to upgrade it to full. You’ll have to cleanse with fire after 90 days. Batteries not included. Your mileage may vary.

The 90-day trial edition of Windows 8 Enterprise is available to download immediately and will give members of the public and developers an easy way to trial the operating system ahead of its debut on October 26th. A number of trial ISO images are available for a variety of languages in x86 and x64 flavors.
