Microsoft's overhaul of Windows 8 is now live as Windows 8.1 Preview and can be downloaded as an ISO file. The software update delivers a number of worthwhile changes like the ability to boot to desktop and better search following months of criticism from users around the globe.
I haven't tried it yet myself as I'm still primarily working with Windows 7 but at least a couple of my fellow TechSpot staffers are either already running the update or plan to do so in the near future.
Granted this is just a beta and there are risks to be aware of, we still must ask - have you installed Windows 8.1 Preview yet or do you plan to? If so, what are your thoughts? Chime in below!
