haay kailangan ko pala munang mag full-install ng windows 7 sa bootcamp partition ng mac ko bago ko mainstall ang windows 8.. kasi .exe yung file and I need a working windows environment sa mac ko before ko maiinstall..

tinatamad na ako heheheh, hintayin ko nalang mga review nyo  :-D

Installed using VirtualBox:

Di ko pa na check lahat dito, yung network connection palang which is good. Di to naka full screen pero puede rin full screen. Installed this sa desktop since yung laptop processor ko walang virtualization feature. Check ko pa ibang features ng preview.

Anu ginamit mo sir? VMWare or VirtualBox? Pag virtualized medyo lag talaga yung mouse., baka dahil virtualized environment kaya ganun or depende lang siguro sa na allocate mo na resource sa virtual machine. 1GB lang kasi na allocate ko for Win8, so far ok naman.

Uu puede. Kung wala ka problema sa RAM and HDD allocation, puede mo nalang i-add yung 64-BIT version as separate VM. Yung akin kasi 32-BIT lang sinubukan ko.

Limited pero connected ka? Try mo disable yung error message (Notify me when this connection has limited or no connectivity).

So far ok naman yung mga programs na naka install sa akin; MS Office 2010, SQL 2008, Chrome, FireFox, CCleaner, etc. Wala rin problema sa internet connectivity.
