SQL Server and Windows 8
I need to run SQLServer on Windows 8 Consumer Preview, so I fired up SQLSever 2008R2 installation, only to find out that it didn't work. So I had to try SQLServer 2012 RC0, and turned out it seemed to work pretty OK.
Next I tried to use DevExpress components, and found that DXDock and DXRibbon didn't work on Consumer Preview. I found it odd because I vaugle remember that I wrote an app with DXDock and ran it on Windows 8 Developer Preview, and that seemed to work out fine. Anyway, I think I have no other choice but modify my app by getting rid of all the DevExpress control. I am sure eventually they will work on Windows 8.
I found that turning on WCF Web Service support in Windows 8 very straight forward as long as I know what feature to turn on in "Turn on and off Windows Feature".
