    students can ask their institutions for a dreamspark account and get Win8 preview with apps
    and a bundle of other Microsoft software too e.g. Office Suite, Visual Studio, Server OS, etc

    I like more Rams because I want a faster windows. If I upgrade from win7 to win8, will everything (files, program installed) be alright or have to make a backup of them
