This needs to be updated in regards to Windows 8 support. It says the as of May 2013 Windows 8 is not supported. Well it's now August and we need to know if
there is any progress here. It is going to get more difficult to order PC's without Windows 8 and we need to know what will happen when that time comes.

I've asked the gentleman in charge of maintaining this FAQ to pop in here and respond to your concerns. Hopefully, he'll be able to provide a better picture of
where Windows 8 support stands at the moment.

I clicked on the link do the "Download and Compatibility Center". Maybe I'm missing something, but there doesn't seem to be one bit of information
regarding Windows 8. All that is displayed is a non-intuitive search engine. This information needs to be easy to access and easily understandable, as
many users are now having to decide on an OS.
