    This is an awesome resource!  Thank you for the free download.  I noticed one typographic error: On page 12, in Chapter 2 under the subheading, "Like Windows 7 - Only better", the 4th paragraph begins with the sentence, "To provide a no-comprise tablet experience, the Windows 8 user interface..."  This should likely be 'no-compromise'.  Just FYI.

    Thanks for making this excellent text available free of charge. I have started programming for W8 and I like the new desktop app programming model, but I only knew just enough about W8 to get by. This book is helping me fill in the gaps and exposing me to lots of W8 goodies. Nice holiday present :)

    I don't like it.  I work with thousands of files, I am a researcher and windows 8 takes away my capability of opening the explorer and start menu from the very beginning so I have to right click, then change to windows 7 like desktop, then click on what I am looking for, etc.  Is frustrating.

    I am  sorry to be negative here... I am reading this book and found it to be very good, actually. The only no-no - I will never agree with the authors on the concept to combine the fun at home and the office applications in something that will newer work together... In small business - maybe. In big - never.

    Disappointing, soon gave up trying to read it all or even skim through it. The marketing hype is rather irritating, why not just let the products' advantages speak for themselves? I had a teacher at school who used to mark any sentence that proovided a worthwhile insight with a tick, and gave an extra tick for hard facts or correct quotes. We soon learned not to waste our time or his time with pointless drivel. There is no need for the technical term "SKU". It is not even the correct way to distinguish between product editions with different feature levels, for example, a single copy and a multiple pack of the same edition would generally be separate SKUs. Please find a proof reader who knows the difference between "to compliment" on p24,p145 and "to complement".

    Great read so far, some minor spelling mistakes at the beginning but the smooth read covers that quickly! This is a good example of how to convince your fellow IT-tech heads to start using Windows 8 instead of the old "being scared and wait for the first SP1" attitude most IT veterans have thesedays!
