Re: new Laptop to use as DS/Development

I haven't had any issues using Windows 8 with the driver station etc. so far, however I do agree that you should play it safe and stay with 7. I did need to put the D-Link configuration tool in compatibility mode to work properly.

Note: If you get a computer with Windows 8 Professional, it comes with downgrade rights to Windows 7 and the ability to go back to 8 at any time. If Pro is an option, the preinstalled OS doesn't need to be a factor in your decision.
