Hi all.
I've had the Win 8 beta for a few months now; and, I know that the official version of Win 8 is being released in October of this year.
I noticed when I was installing Win 8 beta that I had to have a Hotmail / Live account ID to enter.
Will this also be true and required for the official release version? Will anyone who gets Win 8 have to have a pre-existing Hotmail / Live account to continue with the installation? Or establish a Live account?
Or was this requirement only for the beta release?
Thanks for any info.
