Software for Advanced Home Weather Stations.?

I've been researching advanced home weather stations (ok...ok...so I'm a gadget nerd!) such as Accurite, Davis and others. I'm primarily interested in the units that have a USB for connection to a desktop computer.

However, after looking at the specs for the accompanying software, it calls out Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows Vista. Only one of these stations even mentions Windows 8 (not 8.1).

Do any of you readers think that the software would be upwardly compatible with Windows 8.1? Or would the software be as useless as the steam off of a free lunch?

    Contact the nice folks at ambientweather.com - they carry lots of this stuff and can probably tell you which works well (if at all) with Windows 8. There is a "Contact" tab at the top.
