You don't need to be a developer, and IT employee or a manufacturer to be able to get the 90-days evaluation version of Windows 8 Enterprise and you don't need to use the torrents to get it as well.
If you can't copy files that are bigger than 2 or 4 GB, usually HD movies and such, on to your USB key, it's usually due to the file system the USB key is formatted to.
You have more people using one computer and you don't want them to be able to shut it down using a shutdown button on Windows logon screen, this is how you remove it.
If you put your computer into hibernation, the next time you turn it on, you'll get all your windows and programs open just the way they were before the shutdown.
