Test Windows 8 Release Preview (VBox, GDI GL2) + Applets (IE + FF): OK

Both work fine.

Since the VBox only allows Win8 to use the GDI OpenGL SW driver
no GLSL could be tested.

I followed this setup:

Lol Sven is right and there are already people using Windows 8 daily even though the final version has not yet been released.
