That's right. Windows 8 client and server are now available for download. The downloads are developer preview builds and come in both x86 and x64. There are 2 version of Windows 8 you can download. One with developer tools and one without.

There is no upgrade path so a clean install is required. Follow the links below to grab the copy of Windows 8 that you prefer. These are direct download links to the Windows 8 ISO.

It's all in the same ISO. On install just choose server. Make sure you download the version with the developer tools.
