Windows 8 is about to be released and I have a few questions and concerns as I have been reading a lot of comments about this upcoming operating system.

Will they be releasing Windows 8 with Hardware Certification Requirements? Will they start building computers designed to ONLY run with Windows 8?

No they didn't released computers that are designed for windows 8. Unlike google chromebooks Windows 8 is compatible for x86 hardware mainly desktop computers.

Windows 8 minimum hardware requirements are the same as windows 7. Previous program of windows will also compatible.

Windows 8 Certificate requirements are designed to tablets and convertible devices but it does not apply to PC.

Both of your solutions are nice. Especially Fenster Maxine, I like your solution and after reading it I got my expected solution. Reading your answer, I have learned that Windows 8 has been released. I also know the systems requirements in case I want to install it, most of which were unknown to me. Thanks Fenster Maxine for sharing your knowledge with me as well as techyv.com for this discussion.
