==Page soon to be outdated==

Some of the information probably needs to be updated due to changes done through software updates. (For example, allowing IE10 Metro version full flash support. I'm not changing that one because I really don't know enough about article writing to make the edit according to form.)

Additionally, a major update called Windows 8.1 has been confirmed and will add quite a lot of features. It hasn't been released yet, though, so the info about these aspects in the article is not yet outdated.

==Regarding Protogon==

Line 30 ⟶ 21:

The following have been removed from the article: PowerShell 3, WMI 3, IE10, SMB3, Kerberos 5, new PowerShell interfaces to management tools. These are but a few of the [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/explore-windows-8.aspx new features] that are not currently in the article - I'm not inclined to re-add them, but am adding this note so that others have some tips what to search for. <i><font color="black"><font size="2">Socrates2008</i> (<font size=2>[[User talk:Socrates2008|Talk]]</font>)</font></font> 11:41, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

:Soon to be outdated really needs to become 'outdated'. This article deals with things that are new, and the features of 8.1 aren't 'new' yet, just announced. It's interesting though, because of the prominence placed onto the 8.1, I'm wondering whether we need to have a subsection entitled "Features new to Windows 8.1", rather than jamming them into the body of the article. <span style='border-bottom:1px solid #09F'>&nbsp;[[User:Sonicdrewdriver|drewmunn]]&nbsp;<span style='border-left:1px solid #09F; border-top:1px solid #09F; border-bottom:1px solid #FFF'>&nbsp;[[User talk:Sonicdrewdriver|talk]]&nbsp;</span></span> 18:53, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
