    This non-N build definitely works better, with N i had strange bugs and I noticed that system protection regarding restore points was off by default which is weird for a Windows release. In fact now with non N it is like it should be :biggrin: now let's wait for an activation :p

    Last but not least, on my MacBook Pro with bootcamp it still freezes, I haven't tried with this Enterprise yet but it's probably related to drivers at this point and i remember Microsoft fixed these issues before RTM.

    Nope. ATI drivers for Win8 are garbage. Nvidia already has a nice unified package released. There are threads all over roasting ATI about this fail.

    Apart from the color customization lock, is the Enterprise Non-N version usable? Will it lock me out 30 days after install and force me to activate, or will it run forever in this unactivated mode? How about the shutdown every 2 hours? Is it there?
