I did some brief testing on one of the Windows 8 preview releases and
couldn't find any issues at all. Haven't tried Windows 2012 yet, but
wouldn't expect to see any issues there either (Windows is a very stable
platform when it comes to backwards compatibility). As far as EDB are
concerned, we'll consider the installers to be fully supported on those
platforms.
