I like it....Reading the papers with Windows 8

Here's what USA Today looks like after I click on its App in the Start Screen, and then choose an article from its opening page, and then click and drag that a little bit to get that article to open in full-screen mode....


Back at the movies, when I was a kid, every show opened with a Newsreel, the main features of which were big, beautiful, in-your-face images of whatever was making news at that moment. Your 'Cousin Weakeyes' loved it, and so did you, because it was just like you were there, in person, seeing it for yourself. This is very much like that, especially if you have a good-sized screen. If fact, this is even better, because it's in living color, and can have surround sound.

If I had a chunk of the cloud reserved for my own use, and had Windows 8 installed in that, and could punch it up on my hand-held, from wherever, I could do all this while waiting at the bus stop, or eating breakfast at Denny's, or wherever...... and that, Kiddies, is why we have Windows 8. And if you forgot to finish something at the office before you left, you could access that just as easily, and get a head start on today before anyone finds out you didn't finish off yesterday before it became tomorrow. Get the picture? Sure you do! In living color, with surround sound. Isn't technology wonderful?
