    How many of you cleaned the mfg hidden partition and did a fresh install of windows 8 preview?


    I just got my x230t but before I load up all my programs in windows 7 pro that came with it, I was thinking once windows 8 gets released, I really don't want to have to bother with doing this all over since it takes several hours and is a big pain but then again the lenovo feel with the icons and bg will be lost.


    So,,, did you stick with the all the pre-installed stuff,, or clean the partition and installed windows 7 or windows 8......


    For those that have doubts of installing w8, cant you really just cross your fingers nothing is soo terribly wrong with the w8 and you can just do an update once RTM w8 is available and save yourself the trouble of starting over.
