So that is Windows 8 RC
Windows 8 RC was released a few days ago, so I downloaded it, have it installed on both my Asus Eee Slate 121 and Lenovo X60T. Here's my observation so far:
- Some of the problems in Developer Preview and Consumer Preview has been fixed. For instance, SketchBook Pro Metro app now works flewlessly on my EeeSlate.
- Windows Media Center STILL does not work on my EeeSlate (got the codec missing error). This is so frustrating, since if this feature works, I can actually use this device daily. Now it becomes a reminder of my frustration. However, it worked ok on my X60T. Odd.
- Visual Studio 2012 Premium Edition RC was FAILED to be installed on my EeeSlate (running Win8 RC 64 bit). However, the installation went ok when applied to a 32bit Win8 RC (my X60T).
So I really have mixed feeling with this release. and I seriously doubt if people will choose WindowsRT tablet instead of Andorid or iPad.
