I am getting a new computer in a few months.
The operating system will be the new release of Windows 8.
Will there be any problems using GIMP?

Please donate if you can!
We've had our software working on Windows 8 since the very first preview that Microsoft released. The PortableApps.com Platform as well as GIMP Portable work just fine on Windows 8.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
