I have been wanting one of these for a long time but finally price to savings ratio was right
I am still learning all about these, I have to admit that I am very surprised by the lack of coherent support from Panasonic and a little, no a lot upset by their refusal to provide drivers for windows 8 on a machine that is definitely fast enough to take advantage of the latest OS.

The Mk2 works better on windows 7 than the Mk1 so you are ahead already. Personally I didn't like what time I have spent helping a friend set up his windows 8, but willing to help if I can.

I got 64bit win8 running. I did an upgrade from windows XP. then I tried a clean install of win8 but had trouble with the Intel Dynamic Power Performance Management driver. I am next going to do a 32bit install cause the cf-30 will never have more than 4GB RAM anyways. I am planning on starting with a Vista restore, then an upgrade to Windows 8.
I have only a quick question or two. I don't need details, but some general pointers from someone who has succeeded would save me a few days of fiddling with drivers
Did you end up going with a 64bit or 32bit Windows 8 install?
Did you install Vista, then upgrade to Windows 7 and then upgrade to Windows 8?
or did you successfully go straight from Vista to Windows 8 bypassing the windows 7 installation?
