Figure 10-8. Make sure you restart your computer after installing the drivers.
Once everything reloads you should have a fully working Windows 8 install ready to go.
WARNING
You may have noticed that I didn't really talk about using virtualization. While it is pos-
sible to run Windows 8 in a VM on your Mac, you may experience some performance is-
sues that will not offer up a true-to-user experience on the same hardware. I noticed per-
formance problems on my 11″ MacBook Air since it didn't have a dedicated graphics
card. I would only suggest using a VM if you really don't have a choice and would sug-
gest getting a dedicated testing device for performance validation and debugging.
