No problem but im surprised that it cant find the drivers as it uses the windows 7 drivers so if you have windows 7 it should work but i could be wrong. I agree with you here ms main money spinner os business and this has to be there main focus but I think they will take a big chunk of the ipads market with windows 8 because there will be cheap tablets out there to pickup for people who want a tablet as well as it being a tablet that has no limits to what it can do as it is a full os system....

I agree with you and the most secure passwords are things that don't relate to you like I would like 3 Apple Please or the Red racing car ect.

But I work in IT and the amount of users I have spoken too and asked for there password and they have said Password01 its shocking for some of the company's we support.

So far in very impressed with Windows 8. I have installed it on my work laptop that is only a centrino with 3GB of ram and so far I have not found any problems with the programs I use from day to day.

I work in IT support so all the remote tools, HelpDesk software, Websites ect have not had any problems at all. The OS is very fast which I did not expect for a Beta.

I am using a none touch laptop for my test and even though MS have changed how the main part o...

I agree with you plus it is called a Public Beta meaning it has been released to the Public to try so you don't need a pirate version of it as its free to the public.

I have windows 8 installed on my work laptop and i have used it today and i have used it like i did with my with my windows 7 pc for it support and so far im impressed with it. I know some people are complaining about it switching between the old ui and the old ui but it has to work this way just like wine dose on Linux.

I am using a none touch laptop and what they have done to the system is impressive and a big change. Yes people will not like it because it is different bu...

I think metro ui is really nice and the best thing about it is it just works. Metro ui is for tablets and touch screen pcs. Windows 7 ui is for none touch screen pcs and is one of the best uis arount too that works very well. Cant wait to get hold of the windows 8 beta.

This ui looks nice but ide rather have metro.

Lol glad to see people think the same. At the end of the day the iPhone was a simple version of windows mobile that had many limits on what it could do and android is a upgraded version of windows mobile that is more touch friendly and had a built in app store.
Windows Phone is different to them both in the way it works as it is the only is that will give 99% of people what they want out of the box without downloading apps. Each OS has there + and - points just like anything in life b...

I have to agree here im sick of apple going after everyone for nothing and then they copy everyone else and act like it is there idea. Look at the pulldown notice bar in new ios hmm did android not have that first? Also being able to access the camera when the phone is locked o ya windows phone 7 did this 1st. Now they want to add intergration into the contacts app hmm wp7 dose this with the people hub. Ok wel we will like our phone with icloud o no wait windows phone 7 did this 1s as wel ...

I agree with you. I have had more or less every smart phone os over the past 10 or so years from the old sony pda, wimo, iphone, nokia, android, blackberry and windows phone 7 and i have to say windows phone is the only one i have had no problems with at all. I had a hd7 which was a good phone but the phone its self was basically a hd2 with a kick stand and i now have a titan and i have to say its the best phone ive ever had. Its fast easy to use plus if you add zune pass, xbox live, f...

Really like what microsoft are doing with windows phone 7 and windows 8. I think the company is going to start being a main os in mobile, tablet and pc market with windows phone and windows 8. Microsoft are now becomming a creative company again and so far i like what i am seeing.

I like the new logo its keeping it in line with the windows phone logo. But at the end of the day i really could not care less what a logo looks like as long as the product is good to use and with windows phone 7 windows 7 office 2010 exchange 10/11 sharpoint 10 ie9 zune and new xbox dash all working very well and very stable im expecting good things from windows 8 and i think it will be the next device that replaces my laptop and xoom tablet.

I know the app store is in zune but zune is not built into windows and for most of the users who use windows dont use or even know about the zune software.

I do agree with you though that they need to make zune there main video music player. It is by far the best looking and easiest to use out of wmp and itunes.

I also think ms should push zune pass alot more as well as to me paying £8.99 for unlimited music a month compared to £9.99 per album it...

I have to disagree with this guy. Touch screen pc's are going to become the next thing in terms of pc's as it adds more to the mouse and keyboard.

Also windows dose need a app store as alot of people who use a pc dont know what they are doing and this offers a easy way for people to find apps and software.

As for the tablet route i agree that apple and android now have the market but the biggest problem with the ipad and android tablets is you stil...

But this is the way of the world now. If you own a company or are high up in one it is not about where you employ them it is all about how much money you can make. Places like China Japan ect dont have a demand on high wages where places like the UK USA ect so to keep the cost down of a product to make maximum profit from it you look where it is cheapest to have it built and if it is over seas then that is where you go.

Yes its not helping your country but that is business fo...

I have a feeling apple are not going to give anyone a bigger screen than 3.5 and it will be the same with the Ipad format they will not make it wide screen. But no matter what Apple do they will still sell millions of them.

I dont mind helping people but I find after you have helped them once they then pass this info onto other people and say I know some one who can fix computers and they will help you and you then get a phone call or a text to say my friend or someone I know at work is having a problem with there and ive said you would help them. This is the kind of thing I dont like or if they cant do something rather then try and find the info them selfs they ring me.

I work in IT so I get pe...

Ms have been top of he tree for along time amd you cant be at the top for ever. Apple amd android have now become the top dogs but again this will not last for ever and with ms now changing as a company with the metro ui i see them becomming top dogs again until apple or android change something and they become top again. This is how the industry works and will carry on working.

I think the big names in tv films and music need to rethink how they can offer music amd videos ect to us all over the internet. I think things like the zune pass or netflix is a good idea because you get what you want but at a fraction of the price in a dvd or music shop.

I know the world evolves around money but people need to stop the greed and be fair. Look at tablets for example alot of people are saying they cost too much then hp have a fire sale and they all get pic...

Kinect for the PC is different to the one on the 360 it is designed to work up close rather then far away. I am a fan of Kinect but I would say the price is abit over the top but then again you are also paying for the SDK as well.

Im looking forward to seeing what people do with this device on the pc.
