Release date of Windows 8 is Ocotober 26. What you're having is
Developer Preview or Consumer Preview which will run on Bios/UEFI,
MSDos/GPT (like Windows 7) and these do not require 'secure boot'.
An as 'secure boot' is concerned, as of 4 weeks ago, there were no
motherboards manufactured with it.
BTW and referring to an earlier post, Linux will happily run on
Bios/UEFI, MsDos/GPT too and one can have GPT partition with Bios on it
also.
As for Microsoft's 'secure boot', there is nothing we've seen yet.
