Quick tip for those of you playing with Windows 8 Server Beta in a VMware virtual machine:

I’ve been using a Sony HT-CT100 for a few years, and I just got a new Samsung 55″ D8000 TV, so I figured a new soundbar was in order. I prefer soundbars to separates; I just like the “continuous” soundfield effect.
