Anyone using 7 on windows 8?

I have read mixed reports online whether producer 7 will load up OK on Widows 8.  If anyone out there has been successful, I really would like to know for sure.
 
Thanks.

    I take it you don't have a dedicated PC running Sonar 7?  A hundred bucks could probably get you a decent XP system off Ebay.   If you live in an urban area, you could probably pickup the same system at a thrift store for less than $50.  Once all the final updates are installed, there's no need to even have it online (Wouldn't be a good idea anyway).

    If OP was going to spend any money, I would suggest puting it towards upgrading Sonar rather than on antiquated hardware!
     
    Not sure if it will run on win 8 but don't know particularly of any reason it shouldn't. Why not just try it?
