I'm keen to see how the hardware pairs up against the OS, as thats the critical loop closer. Samsung has some nice products so far, but how will it fair outside the consumer space or for that manner within the consumer space.
I'd also like to see how the continium story shapes up as well, today we see Win8 but how will winphone 8 pair up and also how is this all going to tie back to business specific needs? As I'm guessing a large majority of you get paid to write "dashboards" and "forms that make your nose bleed" :) style apps (sharepoint + NUI...its like as ghostbusters said, don't cross the streams!) I refuse to install Win8 unless its on a tablet, so i'm saving my win8 virginity until i get my grubby hands on a Series 7 or something along those lines. --- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.riagenic.com On Thu, Mar 1, 2012 at 3:35 PM, David Burela <[email protected]> wrote: > The Windows 8 consumer preview was released today.
