Join us Tuesday, November 22, at 6:00 PM in the Mt. Kilimanjaro/Mt. Everest rooms of the Charlotte Microsoft Campus. Microsoft introduces a lot of new tools and goodies at the Build Conference in September. Let's take a look and see what Windows 8 is all about. We will examine what it means to be "Metro" as well as roll up our sleeves and see what it takes to build an application. We will take a look at the tooling support in Windows 8 by looking at the developer preview for Visual Studio 2011 and Expression Blend. Come out and see what it takes to develop an application in Windows 8.
