<div dir="ltr"><div>Passing through the airport yesterday I got a look at Microsoft's new marketing push for Windows 8. The droids there had never heard of Gorilla Arm ( <a href="http://catb.org/jargon/html/G/gorilla-arm.html" target="_blank">http://catb.org/jargon/html/G/gorilla-arm.html</a> ) and could tell me nothing at all about developing for it. They claimed that development tools would debut some time in January. Microsoft appears to have abandoned its interest in corporate computing and tried to position windows solely as a content delivery service. Baffling.<br>
