Virtualizing Windows 8 on ESXi 5.1U1

[sabregen]

Any gotcha's I need to be aware of in doing this, specifically for use as a test VDi platform for end user environments? My primary concern is the intention for Windows 8 to be primarily for touch screen use, which obviously VDi cannot provide.

Working fine here, Win 8 and Server '12 both fine.

You better give your users a keyboard shortcut cheat sheet. Win 8/2012 VDI/RDP is *hell* if you don't know they keyboard shortcuts.
