I want to play some steam games that are windows only, and since a full install of windows 7 is $200 I figured I might try the windows 8 public beta when it comes out next week. Only problem is I don't know how exactly to get it, if it is free, and whether it will work. I've already seen articles on installing the developer preview through boot camp, and it sounds rather straightforward. I've also heard that any program that runs on 7 will run on 8.
If I can't get the games to work, I'd rather not bother, so does anyone have answers to my above questions? I know my friend (normally a linux user) was running windows 7 beta when it was still available, and that it was set to expire after the full release.
Thanks.
