It'll inform you which of your programs are compatible with Windows 8, grab you a product key, and automatically download tools that you may need to create an ISO or bootable flash drive.

Windows 8 Consumer Preview is the beta version of Windows 8. The download include pre-release software that may or may not appear in the final version of Windows 8.

Following are the official system requirements for Windows 8 Consumer Preview build released by Microsoft:

You can upgrade to Windows 8 Consumer Preview from Windows 8 Developer Preview, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP, but you might not be able to keep all of your files, programs, and settings.

You can have Windows 8 on your computer in three ways – you can install Windows 8 side-by-side, as a virtual machine (so that it runs inside your existing Windows just like any other software) or Windows 8 can be your main OS (there’s no going back then).

Windows 8 Consumer Preview comes with an expiry date and it'll expire on January 15th, 2013
