I just got time to install a Windows 8 virtual machine (using
VirtualBox under Mac OS X), initial tests show that latest version
of libusbx, libusb-win32, libusbK and Zadig all work well under
Windows 8. I have also installed VS2012 and WDK8, MinGW
and MinGW-w64, all seem to be okay. VirtualBox's video
driver sucks though so I stick to fixed 1024 x 768 resolution for
the virtual machine.

I installed Classic Shell (open source) to avoid the Modern
UI (aka Metro).

As a side note, VirtualBox has a bug that USB will not work
under Mac OS X if 2 processor or more are selected. I
was hit by this bug and Google helped me to find the
answer.
