It is free, you don't need any activation for the Windows 8 Developer Build.

Ahh I see, well you can rest assured that within about 2-3 days of the Windows 8 RC Build there'll be an activator released. Winky Winky

Beats me, but I'll try get some screenshots, the new UI is uber confusing at first o_O


Cool, thank you. I bet, all new UI's are confusing at first. :P
