Just sayin, at my work, thereare windows updates that cause a BSOD ( black screen of death). Install your windows updates, restart, login, and huzzah! Black screen, white cursor. Cant do anything else. Other than open task manager and do restore command.

I think itll be pretty cool, I want to demo W8 on my desktop, butI am one of the people who dont really see the use of the tablet...Im not the greatest at touch screen and games are annoying\a bit harder for me rather than a desktop. Plus, since theyre limited space and hardware, theyre basic and boring.

There is no such thing as a black screen of dead, stop trolling.

Yes..There is a black screen of death. That is the most ignorant thing I have ever heard of. Im working on these PCs\laptops.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Screen_of_Death

The issue im having is happening to a number of people, as my coworker searched ( not these links, these are random link proving they exist, not my specific issue). The issue im having is after a specific set of windows updates, after restart and logging in, black screen and a cursor. This happens with all Dell M6600? laptops in the building.

Microsoft must be sure their tablets are going to loveable....Though with getting it out everywhere, is it going to be like how destops\laptops are now, but for the future with laptops:" Heres my work tablet, the windows Tablet, and here is my Apple tablet I use at home"
