A simple guide to installing the Windows 8 Consumer Preview on a Mac
Step 1: Upgrade VMFusion to version 4. Once installed you will need to carry out "Software Update" as this will be needed to install Windows 8.
Step 2: Download the ISO image for Windows 8 consumer preview from http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/iso
Step 3: Make a note of the relevant product key as you will need this later
Step 4: In VMFusion 4 select "New" then "Continue without disk"
Step 5: Select the ISO image you previously downloaded
Step 6: Follow the remaining installation steps
I still have yet to explore the delights that Windows 8 will have, but it is quite cool to see it running on my MacBook Air.
