Editor's Notes

  1. The typical device dilemma that most people face is this one. They need a PC or laptop to get real work done, but they want a tablet when they’re on the go because it turns on quickly, is lightweight, and makes consuming content easy.
  2. For most businesses, people and their data are their most valuable assets. That means protecting your business data is a high priority. Windows 8.1 brings you all the features you rely on to do just that – defend against malware, encrypt and back up data to the cloud.
  3. Some features require Windows 8. Update available through Windows Store or the Volume Licensing Service Center. Internet access required; fees may apply. SideLoad: All domain joined devices running Windows 8 Pro w/ the spring update, will be able to sideload without requiring a VL-key. Effectively Pro will function like Enterprise does today in this aspect.
  4. Office Office is built to run seamlessly on Surface. Office 2013, whether it’s running on the desktop or in the cloud, works great with touch, mouse and keyboard, or pen. With Word, Excel, and Powerpoint, you have the most popular business tools on the planet. OneNote lets you take and share notes and even record meetings. Lync connects you to people around the world for online business meetings. You can do video calls, instant messaging, online presentations, and collaborate on documents from anywhere in the world. And of course…Outlook for email and calendars. With Windows 8.1, you can use Outlook on any Surface device! [Surface 2 comes pre-installed with Office 2013 RT including Outlook and Surface Pro 3 runs the full Office 2013 suite] Office also offers local and cloud-based storage with OneDrive/OneDrive for Business from any web-capable device which means that users can access their content virtually wherever they are and from any device. To support a multi-device world, Office apps and settings for a single user roam across multiple devices. Touch Business Apps Extend productivity by downloading high impact touch apps from the Windows Store. Find brand names apps users are already familiar with or one of the utility apps created by Windows 8 developers around the world. With any Surface, you can run apps side by side. [Internally, visit SurfaceforSellers for customer evidence.] Desktop Apps Finally, widely used business application brands are delivering modern apps available through the Windows store. If you have existing Windows 7 desktop applications like QuickBooks, Photoshop and SAP you can continue to run them on Surface Pro 3. PRESENTER NOTE: instead of this slide (or along with this slide) you may choose to do a demo of some of the Windows 8.1 business apps on Surface. LOB demo apps are available under the Corporate App Center (from your start screen on Windows 8.1) under the category ‘Windows 8 Demo Showcase’ OR go to http://getapps, Windows 8 Commercial demo apps.
  5. From customers like BMW, Coca Cola, Emirates Airline, and Louis Vutton to analysts like Gartner and Forrester, to tech press to our actual customers, these innovations have paid off
