Windows 8

[Xonim]

Windows 8 is really cool as a dedicated htpc box

Start screen (metro) can be stripped out all the extra junk, and you can add the apps for Netflix, Hulu Plus, etc.. I also linked xbmc to the start menu (used for any local content and bluray's).

You can pin shows from Hulu right to the start screen, talk about WAF right there!

Is this implemented pretty well? Reason I'm asking is because right now I'm running Win7 Pro with XBMC, and I don't much care for the Hulu / Amazon Prime apps for it, so we generally close/minimize XBMC and launch them from Chrome. However, if we could get to a good "app" for that (optimized for large screens) built into Windows 8, I'd probably upgrade in a heartbeat.

Does Win8 offer RDP to all versions? I had to upgrade my HTPC to Win7 pro so I could RDP to it.
