Product Key for Windows 8 Release Preview
Since Windows 8 Release Preview is not a final release, Microsoft has made it a free release. During the installation, you can use the Windows 8 Release Preview product key which is published by Microsoft. This product key will work only for the Windows 8 Release Preview and will not be valid for the final release of Windows 8.
Here is the Windows 8 Release Preview Serial Keys published and shared by Microsoft:
TK8TP-9JN6P-7X7WW-RFFTV-B7QPF
If you like to enable Windows 8 with Media Center, you may use the following product key:
MBFBV-W3DP2-2MVKN-PJCQD-KKTF7
This Windows 8 Release Preview Product key is publicly posted and shared by Microsoft to use with your Windows 8 installation. We do not promote or support software privacy. These serial keys can be used only with the Windows 8 preview versions and cannot be used as License Keys with final release of Windows 8.
Microsoft published several other license keys/product keys for the Consumer Preview and Developer Preview versions. I tried some of them with the Windows 8 Release Preview version, but looks like those old product keys no longer work with the new build of Windows 8.

Need for Speed Underground 2
The sequel to Need for Speed Underground has big shoes to fill, and it does so admirably, with vastly improved graphics, new gameplay modes, and an improved interface. The demo also pushes beyond the scope of the original, offering a "free roam" mode to explore the cityscape and challenge competitors at will, two types of "quick races" on two different tracks, and the ability to race other drivers online.
The graphics are the most obvious improvement. We only can describe them as truly awesome, even on lower settings. Lights on the bridge sparkle in the night sky, and mannequins in store windows catch your eye as you blaze past. Little things, such as pumping your hydraulics and bouncing down the avenue, make the experience even more fun. Racing is arcade style (it's awfully hard to destroy your car) and easy to learn, yet power drifting is an acquired skill that keeps the learning curve gradual, but long. The only knocks on this top-notch driving game are the ubiquitous product placements (a Cingular messaging system?), high system requirements, and large download size. Considering the depth and quality of Need for Speed Underground 2, though, most gamers can forgive those details.

AeroWeather: Change Aero colors according to the weather
AeroWeather features include:
- Temperature-based color changes
- Minimum and Maximum values let you define your own range of colors
- Maximum temperature (or higher) is always red
- Minimum temperature (or lower) is always purple
- Color is calculated based on minimum and maximum values
- For example, given a minimum of zero, and a maximum of 100, if the temperature is 50 degrees, the calculated color would be a shade of green
- Fahrenheit or Celsius can be selected.
- UI is grey if it’s cloudy, blue if it’s sunny, white if it’s snowing, dark grey if it’s raining, etc
- Dims the Aero colors when the sun sets (retrieves sunset time from weather server). Colors appear dimmer and less vibrant
- Brightens them when the sun rises the next day
AeroWeather requires Windows Vista or Windows 7 with Windows Aero enabled. This software is designed to work with the “glass” effect in Windows Vista and Windows 7, and it will not work unless Windows Aero is enabled.
Download AeroWeather (ClickOnce installer)
Note: AeroWeather requires the .NET Framework 3.5 to be installed. If you do not have it, you will be prompted to install it.
