Windows 8 has finally been released to MSDN and TechNet subscribers which is essentially the actual release of Microsoft’s latest operating system. Josh was able to download and install it before the show, so he provides a couple of important notes for Media Center users before he and Richard got into all of the other news. There was plenty to cover, like Windows RT tablet partners, a rumor that the Surface might only cost $199, the latest in Microsoft’s UI style naming drama, and some product updates. As if that weren’t enough though the guys were joined by Dan Skaggs. He’s a Media Center user, but that’s about the only piece of Microsoft technology in his house. Find out how that works for him and his family. Make sure to join Josh and Chris Barnes for the live recording of the next episode of the show next Tuesday, August 21st at 8pm ET!
