Would quite like to take a look at the preview edition, but I don't seem to be able to find the download link via MSDN? We have a subscription through work but it doesn't seem to be listed. Has it been pulled? Anyone have a direct link?

Anyone else had a look at it as yet? Any thoughts?
 
Ignore me! Turned out not to be the server version! Damn softpedia.

Google does point towards MSDN though
 
No problemo - remember to report back once you've had a play I'd be interesting in hearing peoples views on it (as I'll no doubt miss stuff when I test it!)

Looking forward to the new version of Hyper-V, plus all the storage improvements. I'm not actually that fussed about ReFS right now, but all the other functionality is very welcome.
 
I have installed it inside of VMWare workstation and Hyper-V is working well. I'm not to sure on some of the GUI's and layouts as yet but will keep playing for now until a beta comes out.

One things I will note is I had to disable Accelerate 3D Graphics on the Display adapter as I kept getting a BSOD. Once installed I stuck the latest VM Tools on rebooted and found I was presented with a black screen and a cursor. I have since gone back into the settings and enabled 3D acceleration and the metro interface now loads and all is working really well.

Thanks for your help, looking forward to other peoples feed back.
