I expected to find a video here...

If you go to the live feed and scroll back to about hour 2:15 or so, you'll see Tim's talk

Microsoft strongly suggest building Metro Applications in HTML/JS, not XAML.

So the question is why should we use a depreciated product(even thought I may want to)?

is a newcomer, young and attractive
it's perfectly suited for tablets thanks to the low power drain and low heat generated by systems running on ARM processor !!;)
im so happy for codename:Windows 8 and i think Windows 95 was a big deal for users and developers alike.
Overall, this release feels smoother, faster, snappier, and more stable.
Metro does rock on desktop and laptop!
with this your luck can be perfect.
now with touch you can have all your requirements plus even more.
My prediction is clear and I know that there will be a much perfect luck for the whole W(P)8(RT) universe than Microsoft can imagine.I respect Microsoft for doing that. My opinion on these metro hating freaks is that they are all people who don't like to change
and dont forget Thank for feedback mark as answer and log uri

They say Native c++ code but all the api need to to be ref newed and passed by ^. This is the terminology of CLR... Also ^ and ref new is not standart c++.

If all the ^ and ref new are not CLR what is the difference?

 

Thanks

For example this is a screenshot

http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/3154/hellocodeccxcsharpvbnet.png (direct link)

of examination's Dependency Walker of three binaries of the same code from Charles Petzold - Programming_Windows__Sixth_Edition, but written in three language - C++/CX, C# and VB.NET.

There are no mscoree.dll (.NET core) in C++/CX variant(HelloCode_CCX.exe).
