Well Win8 will run on VMware Workstation 8.0.0. Install as Other 64 bit OS. Very fiddly to set up though. Had to dig some info online. First you need to run VMware as administrator, keep the RAM under 3GB, 30GB HD, 4 processors, 2 core/proc. Those settings seemed to work for me. I got the BSOD for win8 a couple of times which is now a giant white sad smilie : ( with a light blue background.
It's running now. Will play with it tomorrow.
PS: I downloaded the 4GB file (developer version). The other smaller ISO didn't work for me. It is also reported to work fine on a MAC with Fusion 4.
