Wow, that's pretty impressive. I take it you are in the Seattle area then, with that Windows 8 screen on your laptop? That's what mine defaulted to and I'm in the area.

I'm in the NW but not Seattle. I think that's just its default. That's an HP ElitePad sitting on a doc not connected to any monitors. That particular day I'd just re-installed the OS to take a look at the TPM.

It may not be of any importance, but I figured I should warn you that the photo you linked earlier contains Exif-data which reveals your location.

Yes, it was taken in a parking lot in Boise.

I'm in Melbourne, and our office's sole win8 machine shows the same thing. I think it's just homage to the home of MS.

Interesting. I wasn't aware of that at all. Good to know, thanks for the heads up. Now I feel goofy for making such an assumption.
