  3. Storage Sense came over from Windows Phone. I'm not sure I know exactly what it does. Looks like it breaks down what's using your various storage drives into categories like "System and Reserved", "Desktop Apps", "Pictures, Music and Video" etc.

    It's also got a "Save Locations" subheader that allows you to choose where to save new pictures, videos, music and documents.

  7. Install finally done.

    Microsoft Solitaire Collection does work!! That was my biggest concern of course. Now I can stuff this newest build on my Surface Pro!! *Smile

    Couple of issues:
    1. Numeric keypad is never recognized at all in any place. Stroking those keys gets me nada.
    2. Onscreen keypad won't come up In the login screen.
    3. NewsgroupsRT still has a cursor issue when the auto-wrap happens in a response.

    Nothing earth shaking, just relatively minor irritants though the numeric keypad one is a bigger minor problem.

    I found that the numeric keypad works but the light showing it active does not light up.
    Odd but it does work.

    Odd but it does work.

    Jeff None of the lights on my keyboard work, which sucks, seeing as how it's a light up keyboard.

    Have you tried to re-install the software yet??

    My VPN's into the data center have broken, I'll look for a fix in the morning and have set the macbook up on standby in case any problems happen in the night with the servers.
