More info at the reduser forums. Read Jarred’s posts, he seems to know a lot since he is a MacPro user, or was.

I am running win8 right now. You can download the release preview. It is really not that different. Yes, you have metro interface, but you also have a big square that says “desktop”, you press/click it and it takes you to desktop mode in no time. Then, it is all the same or better.
There is no start menu, but you press the windows key and type the program name, just like you would do with the start menu and it opens. When you press windows key, you go to metro ui, and there you have everything you would have on the start menu, so it is not big deal, in fact, it is far more readable than the start menu.
I am running CS6 and Scratch on it, and it works flawless. I’m editing 5k epic footage at 1/4 res on my ibuypower laptop. Metro ui makes more sense in tablet mode, the new dockable tablets with core i5 will make sense also with win8. You’ll have a tablet with metro apps, but also access to full desktop apps and peripherals, it is the next step, probably. Imagine taking raw stills on a canon and then download them to a tablet and edit them in lightroom if you like.

Press Windows key or click start and then type “notepad”, hit enter. That’s where notepad is for a Windows user.

Yes Walter, it wasn’t cuda natively, but some plug-ins, like beauty box from digital anarchy used cuda in previous PS versions.

PS uses cuda since CS5 or even CS4 i think. I can’t remember if it was cuda already, but I remember the change when I installed my now old quadro 4800, zooming and moving pictures became ultra smooth. Then cuda arrived to start taking care of effects too.

You are right, vista is no Windows millenium! But 7 is better, and 8 is better than 7. Metro gui is aimed at tablets but still you have a big desktop tile, click it and you are in classic desktop mode.
Remember, before year ends, you’ll start seeing tablets with Intel x86 cpus. In tablet mode use Metro gui, when docked, you can use classic desktop. You can also use classic desktop in tablet mode, that’s why Windows explorer has the big and populated ribbon with every command at your finger tips. Believe me it is not bad at all.
You can download win8 consumer preview and install it on a vmplayer virtual machine legally and for free. It’s worth it.

Every app has it’s tile, but i got used in win7 to press the Windows key from the keyboard, then type the name of the app and hit enter before the word is complete.
If you use it with your hands, you have to swipe the sides and the top and bottom, if you use the mouse, the corners are used. I spent one hour trying to figure how to shut down the computer!!!! But truth be told, it is the fastest Windows to date, no doubt.

Yes, it is quite a laptop, and not that expensive indeed. Originpc sells even better ones with the same barebone chassis.
I work mostly as a camera rental and as a DIT on set. Then i often do the color grading and sometimes edit myself. I used top be a fulltime editor and aftereffects artist. I will post some of my work soon!

Hello everybody, My name is Santiago, I’m from Argentina and i’ve been reading this forum since the FCP debacle, let me tell you, it’s been really fun!!!!
I am a PC user, been editing for 15 years with lots of NLEs, like speedrazor, *EDIT, etc. Now I’m on CS6 and loving it, i own a red one and a red epic, so my workflow is dictated by red native format.
I am running win8 right now, it is not bad at all, if you don’t like the GUI, well, you can avoid it most of the time and stick to the traditional win7 GUI, but if you learn a little you’ll like win8 GUI.
I use an IBuyPower laptop with a six core i7, 12 GIGs of ram, system SSD and a GTX560. Couldn’t be happier with this machine, it runs 5k at 1/4 res very fluidly on CS6 and Win8. It is the best WinOs to date for me. I also had the chance to try an HP prototype tablet, with a core i5, Win8, and a docking station that turns the tablet into an all in one. The concept is really interesting!
Well, will see how it evolves.
