Wait on upgrading computers to Windows 8.
The UB Workstation Standards Committee

CIT is testing services and software commonly used at UB to determine if they work with Windows 8. View current results of Windows 8 testing at UB to help you determine when to upgrade UB-owned computers.

If faculty and staff have new Windows 8 computers, the latest version of Symantec AntiVirus for UB-owned computers will work with Windows 8. A similar version is avaiilable for faculty and staff personally owned computers.
