  I just started watching this series.  Great series!  I'm learning a lot, especially about things I didn't even know was there, like Perfmon.  I've got a question about performance monitor.  I have been able to find it on my Windows 7 box, but can't on my old XP box.  Here at work we have a mixture of XP and Win7, so it would be great if I could run that on XP as well.  Is it there?

• TWC9: Windows 8 Release Preview, SkyDrive, PhoneGap Build and more

  Just watched this on my ride into work. The new functionality to SkyDrive sounds good, but I've got a question.  I also use Live Mesh, which syncs things like my IE favorites, and whatever folders I choose, into the cloud.  This is great, and I use it, but the most important thing to me, with respect to Live Mesh, is the ability to be able to log into my work PC from anywhere.  I rely upon that to get remote access to my work PC.  Does this new functionaltiy to SkyDrive do that?  Does SkyDrive and Live Mesh "play nice" with each other?

  @rbarraza: Rick, it's my turn to apologize for not responding sooner.  WOW, almost a month after you replied to me.  I'm sorry!

  Thank you for your description as to what you mean by a "new developer".  It's interesting, then, as it now seems like Microsoft is going to make it possible for the hobbiest developer to get back into the game, so to speak.  I know that you meant more than that, but it seems as though the new developer would be someone who isn't necessarily a heavy duty enterprise developer (although they're included), but could also be the person who writes a few scripts on the side, occasionally dabbles in HTML and JavaScript, that Windows 8 will open it up for people like that again.  Something that was lost with each new version of VS.

  Loved this episode, Laura, as always. I downloaded NFL Pro '12, because I saw it on this show.  One thing I don't understand is the need for a "NFL Profile".  What is that? What is Sports Talk, etc?

  I started watching this podcast on my bus ride into work today.  Rick, you used a term I've not heard before, called "New Developers".  I think you said it is a term that was introduced at the Build conference.  I wasn't able to make the Build conference, so would you please define what that term means.

  I was just watching this on my bus ride into work today.  Gov mentioned something called Reghacker to someone's question about elevating permissions on an executable, but I can't find that out there.  Where is it?
