SBS2011 and WIndows 8 Pro

$

Hi

Are there any issues I need to be aware about with Windows 8 Pro joining to a SBS2011 domain?

Do I just run the connect tool from IE as with Win 7?

I have been foreced by Dell to get Win 8 Pro on a laptop, and while I know I am licensed to downgrade to windows 7, the recovery option is a nightmare. (the Dell Factory recovery software doesn;t work properly, windows 8 software wont do a recovery drive either, and of course the Win 8 Product Key is all injected now so not viewable anywhere.

So I don't want to risk losing the official OS with the chance I may not be able to just get a Win8Pro cd and reintall it

This will be the first Win8 laptop on the network and I am just trying to head off any problems

Any tips or advice (and don't say don;t buy Dell, Dell are doing just the same as every other Laptop manufacturer out there)

Anything I need to be aware of with Redirected Folders and Offline File Synchronisation? Does it all work just as well as Windows 7?

Thanks

Tris
