I had the rare opportunity to speak with Mr. Raymond Chen and Mr. Larry Osterman last week. Both were extremely down-to-earth and full of enthusiasm for windows 8. I mean, this product has 1 billion users across the world and for a lot of people, this will be the first computing experience. I am truly excited about this windows release.
