How to install hyper-v on windows 8 ?

I want to install virtual PC but after some research I came to know that windows 8 no longer support virtual pc and it has been replaced by something called hyper-v.

I just bought a Windows 8 laptop.

I tried looking into windows on / off features (in control panel) and there is NO hyper-V.

I know why I don't have hyper-V because after doing some research it seems like it is only available on windows 8 PRO.

Here is comparison chart: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8_editions#Comparison_chart

I have Widows 8 on my laptop (NOT Windows PRO).

Now in this situation, how to install hyper-v on my laptop ?

Also, will I be able to run windows 7 virtually on my windows 8 laptop using hyper-v just like virtual pc ? like switching in windows between OS ? If I cannot do this and hyper-v does not work like virtual PC then I don;t think hyper-v will be useful to me at all and i don't wanna figure it out if it is not useful in any way ?
