One poorly thought through element is the help & support function. In previous versions of windows, it was held on the machine. Now it's online.
LOL
Poorly thought?? As Microsoft loves to say 'This behavior is by design".
They get to see who uses help (location, time of day)
What they are asking for help on
Browser version and .NET runtime version
(possibly licensing -legal- status)
And of course, a simpler way to update and disseminate the help files....
Sounds like its very well thought out to me!
p.s. If you are using a dual core processor system make sure the 2nd cpu is turned on. It was on on the betas but off on the final (compatibility reasons?)
