Chapter 28. The Road Warrior’s Handbook

If Windows 8.1’s two-headed design means anything at all, it’s that Microsoft is betting on the future of mobile. Fewer and fewer computers will be tethered to desks. More and more will be carried around—and most of them will have touchscreens. Microsoft believes that so strongly, it created TileWorld to be ready.
