We are back with show 357, Jason and Garry join me to talk about the news items from the last week including our experiences with the release preview of Windows 8. I have been testing it on a HP TouchSmart, Jason has it running on an Iconia and Garry has it in a virtual machine. We talk about the changes in this build, Flash being including in Windows 8 and the first look at Windows RT tablets.
We also talk about Microsoft’s SmartGlass for the Xbox and try to work out what it is and take a look at DVBLink 4.5 beta 2.
Tickets are available for the September TDL user group meetup, we have lots of technology on show and it’s a great opportunity to meet up and network with other enthusiast. We will have a great selection of retro computing courtesy of The Centre for Computing History, including ZX Spectrums, BBC Micros and other vintage tech.
