For most of us, "later this year" is not really good enough. A quick fix would be nice, as a lot of devs run Multiple Displays. We're testing Dev preview and it's forcing me to find another piece of hardware if DisplayLink isn't going to be quick to push out this driver. It's now Mid-October...There should be something

Dears admins,
I agree with rlestage user. We need a quick update, there should be something. Most users that test Windows 8 Preview, uses this pre-realease as main PC and not as test as should to be, but I'm one of first. That use this pre-release as main, at least not as main but yes as secondary pc on laptops and tablets. We would appreciate if you provide us any beta drivers to test on windows 8 Preview asap. |

I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. It is possible that neither of you posters realized how you came across to some, so let me help provide illumination. It seems that you are saying that because you are devs, you expect this in a time frame which in the development world is almost right away, while not allowing any professional courtesy to the devs who are working on making a stable enough beta driver for a pre-beta OS that just came out. I'll just come out and say it, even if it is unintentional, it comes across as trollish. Please future posters, unless they miss their time frame with no accounting for why, let's keep this conversation on topic and try to be respectful of others. |

This is exactly the position at the moment. There are some major graphics changes in Windows 8 that we are having to work with. This is taking time to develop, and we are using the Developer preview to do this as quickly as possible. This is the way support for a new platform is done and the reason for the preview release: for us and others to develop support for Windows 8. Wim |

Well, only 23 days left in the year! Hopefully we'll see something in the beta forums here shortly!
