  Which parts of styling are new to Windows 8 or VS 2011? I've heard of many of the concepts presented previously but are any new?

  It's decided. We should all use the next three months, the time until PDC, to study Android and iOS. Thanks Microsoft!

  I can only see that Microsoft must create Silverlight to HTML5 tools. Otherwise they will lack the leverage which would risk a mass Dev Exodus. Furthermore, it behooves them to position themselves as the premier platform for HTML5 development (Visual Studio 2012) for *all* HTML5 devices. Their greatest asset is .Net APIs. They have to fully leverage it into their new offerings.
  
  Ultimately, what I predict, is that Google will find great success with Native Client. First with Chrome browser and later with 3rd party apps. They have quite a bit of work to do before they get there. They have to prove that NC is secure and significantly outperforms javascript. Likely they'll get there and it will force all the other browsers to go NC or to come up with some other answer.

  My Peace Corps host father, Mauritania 2003, asked to see my cellphone. You know, Americans have all the latest tech. I had recently bought the latest Ericsson in America. When he saw it, he looked disappointed and pulled out ... the same model. They were relatively prosperous. He had 12 goats and a delapidated delivery van. When the van hit a camel, he became destitute.

  Faster. better, cheaper multitouch notebooks are already announced. They are to drop next week with W7's release. I expect even more interesting models when Intel's *dales are released in January.
