I really want to see the Mustang, it is the talk of students!  Good work guys.

Hey Rob,

Are you going to the same for Windows 8 and the Kinect?  Or XAML and WPF?  Hope so, you are awesome!

@d0nauld: Could you email me from my blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/devschool if you are still having difficulties?  I would need to find out more about your set-up to assist.

If you receive an error using the NuGet PM command:

Install-Package CloudServices.Notifications 

And receive an error similar to: GAC does not include Microsoft.IdentityModel

This may have been caused by not using the full download of the Azure Toolkit from:

@Algorithum: Make sure to have the latest video drivers from your computer manufacturer.  For example I have a Lenvov W500 and when I rebuild the image if I run it on the Windows 7 drivers it will show that error message.  Then when I run the driver upgrade at Lenovo the problem goes away.

This doesn't work for all computers running Windows 7 or Windows Vista, but does in a large minority of times.  Do this even it your computer is brand new since the software is often loaded at the factory and it takes several months before the computer hits the market.  Drivers are updated frequently, and the drivers are maintained by the manufacturers.

Really, the more I think about it, why doesn't Microsoft present Excel as an inexpensive competive tool to Mathematica?  Seriously, the two products are very similar, and Excel is SOOOOOO much less expensive. 

Excel rocks and so does Power Pivot!  Cern needs to utilize the Power Pivot.  Excel is competitive with Mathimatica and the corporation needs to step up and say so.
