  1. Hello, my name is <Name>. I’m eager to talk to you today about Windows 8 Pro for your business.
  2. [SLIDE OBJECTIVE: This is the Windows 8 Pro promise and the promise statement that tells the customer exactly what they are getting from Windows 8 Pro.] Talk Track:Introducing Windows 8 Pro - delivering new levels of integration, security, and productivity, all without sacrificing performance or choice. Windows 8 Pro is built for business and compatible with life.
  3. [SLIDE OBJECTIVE: Create excitement about what the new Windows 8 means for their business and emphasize this is a whole new Windows, not just an upgrade.]Talk Track: INTRODUCTION TO WINDOWS 8Windows has been reimagined to focus on your business and life. Windows has a new beautiful, fast, and fluid design. Behind the new look of Windows 8 is the rock-solid foundation you’ve come to expect from Windows 7. Just like Windows 7, security and reliability features are built into Windows 8. Everything that was great about Windows 7 is even better.The new Start screen has all of the information you care about in one place, such as your contacts, the weather, and the next appointment on your calendar. Windows 8 is truly yours: websites, news, people, contacts, and your favorite apps are front and center. Because you decide how to organize and group things on the screen, viewing and interacting with content is faster than ever. The tiles on your Start screen are brimming with content, and they change and update in real time so you can see what’s going on and stay on top of things. Windows 8 is hands-on and designed to eliminate the need to choose between this and that.. Between consumption and productivity, between powerful capabilities and long battery life. … between touch and mouse and keyboard, for example. Because you work in different ways depending on which app you’re using, Windows 8 makes it easy to use touch or mouse and keyboard, whichever method works best. And the most efficient way to get stuff done is immediately available. Whether you’re browsing apps, reading a book, or typing on the go with touch, creating a project that requires the more productive horsepower of a traditional mouse and keyboard, or doing everything at once, Windows 8 makes it easy. You use whatever works best, whenever it works best. No tradeoffs. Windows 8 also incorporates the familiar PC desktop that you know today. In the desktop, you’ll see that the settings and features you used in Windows 7 are still there. Apps are the heart of Windows 8. Windows 8 provides you with built in apps, and access to the Windows store where you can easily browse, try, buy and manage apps for thousands of apps. The majority of your existing apps that run on Windows 7 will run on Windows 8.Windows 8 is cloud-connected. Your Microsoft account is like a portable, personal PC that appears on any Windows 8 device you’re using. Sign in to your Windows 8 device with your Microsoft account and you’re immediately connected to the people, files, and settings you care about. Your PC comes to life with all the things that make Windows yours, including your Start page, themes, language preferences, browsing history, and browser favorites. You can connect your favorite services to your Microsoft account, too—services like Microsoft Hotmail, Microsoft Messenger, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, and more. And you can immediately get to your photos, docs, and other files, whether they’re on Microsoft SkyDrive, Facebook, Flickr, or other services.All of these new Windows 8 features, and more, are available on a wide range of hardware…(segue to next slide)
  4. [SLIDE OBJECTIVE: Communicate how businesses no longer have to compromise when deciding on which device is best for their business.]Talk Track: INTRODUCE THE NEW WIDE RANGE OF HARDWAREThe beautiful, fast, and fluid design is perfect for a range of hardware: from compact, touch-enabled tablets and lightweight notebooks, to PCs and large, powerful all-in-ones with high-definition screens. With Windows 8, you don’t have to choose between a touch device and a hard-working PC because you can have it both ways. And whether you like to stay put or work on the go, you can enjoy the power, convenience, and versatility of Windows across a new wide range of hardware.Windows 8 is designed for a touch or mouse & keyboard experience providing a fast, fluid and responsive experience, supporting multipoint touch capabilities. Touch experience can be used for precise targeting with efficient on-screen typing and consistent app behavior with a modern track pad. Windows 8 devices will be thinner, lighter, faster offering faster boot and greatly reduced Wi-Fi connection times and new processes and materials making it easier to get it all done wherever and whenever you need.Because Windows 8 can run on low-power CPUs, you can work much longer on a single charge. That means you can stay connected so your PC is ready when you are. Battery life is longer and connections are stronger so you’ll be able to find a device to suit you for work or play. Windows 8 provides advanced security capabilities that keep you more secure against malware intrusion. Windows 8 Pro devices are better protected with easy-to-deploy data encryption with BitLocker, and more protected with strong access control to resources with domain join and Group Policy. Windows 8 supports devices with built-in sensors, providing new and tailored app experiences. Sensors supported with Windows 8 include accelerometer, geolocation, inclinometer, gyrometer, compass, ambient-light, orientation and simple orientation of a device.Windows 8 devices are extensible with the latest in technology: USB 3 offers up 10x speed of USB 2.0, higher power for charging, lower power requirements; Bluetooth LE (low energy aka low power) delivers low power wireless connectivity for longer battery life or new classes of low power devices; Wi-Fi Direct provides high bandwidth, secure, peer-to-peer device connectivity between PCs and devices; Near-field Communication is a low bandwidth, short range communication technology perfectly suited for person-to-person sharing and simplifying device pairingYou will get a high quality experience on any certified Windows 8 device providing a great common experience. This common experience provides what users need. For example all tablets that meet specifications will have a USB port, webcam and five buttons. All certified PCs will come with UEFI to ensure fast, secure booting. And where there are cases that businesses have requirements that conflict with the standard certification requirements, Windows 8 will also power specialized solutions.Windows 8 is now supported with amazing set of new device designs, in new and traditional form factors. Windows 8 provides one interface across all devices, with a consistent UI and functionality offering you the versatility to chose the device that works best for how you work. From tablets and convertibles to notebooks large and small to desktops and all-in-ones with large, high-definition screens. Windows will keep supporting the special devices that make Windows power business – PCs that can take a 50 caliber bullet and tablets that can be sanitized for use in healthcare. This is all part of the Windows value to business – for any scenario there is a solution and device designed for the job. Windows 8 leverages an unprecedented time of PC hardware innovation driven by mobility, integration, connectivity and security.
  5. [SLIDE OBJECTIVE: This slides emphasizes how Windows 8 Pro will help keep them connected to their information and devices ]Talk Track:Your business isn't standing still. And neither are you. But just because you're out of the office doesn't mean you can be out of touch. You've got to stay connected to your work no matter where you go. Whether you're working from across town, or across the country, Windows 8 Pro helps keeps it all at your fingertips wherever and whenever you need it. And not only can access your files, devices, apps, and media, you can do so with confidence knowing Windows 8 Pro is there helping to protect your information and privacy.Stay connected to information and people with tiles* that are live with content. This re-imagined interface allows you to stay aware of what’s important as your Start screen comes alive with activity that's updated in real time. Take it all with you for a seamless, personal experience on any Windows 8 device with Microsoft account and Sync PC settings. Always feel connected as your apps, profile, people and settings can sync automatically on any Windows 8 device. Your mail, calendar, and contacts are always handy and accessible through built-in apps that automatically stay current and organized via Exchange ActiveSync.Accessing your office network is a snap with VPN client available on Windows 8 Pro. This native software helps more securely connect you to your network from a remote location, allowing you to work from virtually anywhere. But what if work takes you away from internet access? No problem. Just use Mobile broadband**, the built-in broadband feature in Windows 8 Pro that makes it easier to get connected and stay connected even if Wi-Fi is not available. Built-in Wi-Fi helps manage which connection to use as it automatically switches to Wi-Fi (vs. mobile broadband) if they’re available, which saves costs and improves bandwidth.With Windows 8 Pro, you can access files, apps and media from your desktop via another Windows based device with Remote Desktop. It provides access to another device running Windows via the internet, so you can access what you need, or allow IT to help from remote locations. So what if work takes you so far off the map you don't have internet or mobile coverage? Offline files lets you work offline and then automatically synchronizes between your PC and network content later when you come online.* Requires internet connection** Requires access via your mobile telecommunication contract
  6. [SLIDE OBJECTIVE: Reassure customer that Windows 8 Pro will help keep their information, devices, and private data secure.]Talk Track:One of your main concerns is securing information and privacy, and Windows 8 Pro gives you more peace of mind.It can be a scary world out there. The last thing your business needs is to have a setback because your critical information, customer data, or hardware is damaged, lost, or stolen. Your business needs end-to-end security that helps protect your information, your customers, your people, your devices, and your privacy. Windows 8 Pro can help do all of that, and so much more.Trusted Boot is your first line of defense, helping to keep your device safe and trouble-free by running several self-healing processes at start-up. This helps your device be more secure every time it starts up.BitLocker helps protect your hard drive’s information from prying eyes and compromise, so you know if your information or device is damaged, lost, or stolen, its contents are encrypted for security.And when you have to send a piece of critical information on a USB or external hard drive, BitLocker To Go provides that same level of security for external devices. So you can rest assure knowing that your information is safer, no matter where it goes.With its tremendous advancements in security and performance, Internet Explorer 10 allows you download files and surf the net more securely than ever. And with so many malicious agents out there, you need Windows Defender to help secure your device, apps and information from malware like viruses, spyware and Trojans. Plus, Windows SmartScreen Filter helps protect against socially-engineered attacks, such as phishing sites and malware downloads.
  7. [SLIDE OBJECTIVE: Focus on how Windows 8 pro simplifies IT management]Talk Track:With technology, comes a huge responsibility of managing it all. Windows 8 Pro was specifically designed to help do just that. Managing your company's technology needs has never been simpler as Windows 8 Pro lets you easily orchestrate user settings, updates, and security options on all of your devices. With a wide offering of IT management tools, Windows 8 Pro takes some of the pain out of managing hardware, software, and personnel. Windows 8 Pro comes with management features such as domain join which joins Windows 8 Pro devices to your business network domain to better secure and manage your users and their devices.UseGroup Policy in Windows 8 Pro to set simplified security and IT policies including enforcing password rules, restricting data access and managing users connecting to your business network and data. And if you need to provide your Windows 8 device to a new employee or start afresh, with one easy click you can reset your PC to the state you first got it. No need to call your IT for help on this. So what makes Windows 8 Pro so reliable, efficient, and powerful? Simple, it uses the same proven platform of Windows 7. The truly amazing part is Windows 8 Pro is faster, simpler, and better, but it is designed to works right alongside Windows 7 and current Windows server infrastructure.And Windows 8 Pro is still fully compatible with the majority of existing applications that run on Windows 7.Windows 8 Pro allows you to grow into additional business features offered through Professional Grade Offerings. Offerings such as Windows Intuneand Volume Licensing that deliver even more control, flexibility, and efficiencies.
  8.

  10. [Slide Objective: Explain the new Windows RT option for select businesses but emphasize it does not include all the features of Windows 8 Pro.]Talk Track:With Windows RT there has been a lot of hardware and software innovation. Windows RT runs on ARM processors, which helps build a device with long battery life and new form factors (thin, light, and sleek devices.) Windows RT is built on a new paradigm (preconfigured system on certified hardware), which helps ensure that users have high quality and predictable experience over time. While Windows RT offers great benefits mentioned above, it shares commonality and shared code with Windows 8, offering consistent great Windows experience. Windows RT is compatible with certified peripherals including class drivers for most peripherals, and the majority of mice, keyboards, printers, or USB storages are supported out of the box.Windows RT can run apps from the Windows Store. Businesses can also use internally-developed business apps via side-loading on Windows RT.Windows RT includes new UI and the desktop, with Office Home & Student 2013 RT Preview1 (with touch-optimized Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote) included, to allow end users to be productive out of the box. Business customers need a VL step up Office SKU for commercial use rights. Final Office version will be installed via Windows Update when available (free download; ISP fees apply). Windows RT software updates automatically through Windows Update, which cannot be turned off (unlike Windows 8). Like Windows 8, Windows RT comes with inbox mail client, which works with Exchange Server, Hotmail, or other email services. It natively supports touch, mouse, and keyboard, and multiple users can create accounts on the same device.Windows RT supports mobile broadband networking and includes inbox VPN client (for Microsoft, Cisco, CheckPoint, Juniper and other servers) and supports multi-factor authentication (smartcard and virtual smartcard).

Through the Mail app, businesses can also manage these devices via Exchange ActiveSync (EAS).Unlike Windows 8, Windows RT does not allow for installation of desktop applications. Besides side-loaded Windows 8 apps, Windows RT works exclusively with apps downloaded from the Windows Store.  1Preview edition installed. Final Office version will be installed via Windows Update when available (free download; ISP fees apply). Some features and programs unsupported. For more information, see http://office.com/officeRT 
  11. This is ridiculously long:Speaking of computer disasters, if you want to reboot your system into Safe Mode, you can’t just jam on the F8 key prior to Windows 8 loading: You have to first enable Safe Mode itself. Type “cmd” on your Metro UI, right-click on the Command Prompt app (called “cmd”), and select to run it as an administrator. Then type “bcdedit /enum /v” on the command prompt screen and hit Enter. Copy the entire “identifier” string (including the braces) for the entry that has “Windows 8 Consumer Preview” as the description, not “Windows Boot manager.” Then, type the following into the command prompt: bcdedit /copy youridentifierstring /d “Windows Developer Preview (Safe Mode)” and hit Enter. After that, type in “msconfig” and hit enter.Click on the “Boot” tab and select the entry called “Windows Developer Preview (Safe Mode).” Click on the “Safe Boot” option, the “Make All Boot Settings Permanent” option, click OK, and click “Yes.” Restart your system, and you’ll be given the option to launch either your normal Windows 8 environment or your new Safe Mode environment.

  13. One of the more peculiar features of Windows 8 is just how much Microsoft buries the shutdown button within its Metro UI – you know, the way you go about turning off your PC when you’re done for the day. You can always switch over to Desktop mode and give it the ol’ alt+F4 to receive your shutdown options. But you can also create actual shutdown tiles that accomplish the same effect in Metro.Within Desktop mode, right-click on the desktop and create a new shortcut. For it’s “location,” you’ll want to type in the following: shutdown.exe -s -t 00. Feel free to name the shortcut whatever you want (“Nuke it from orbit?”). Once it’s on your desktop, fire up Windows Explorer and move the shortcut to your C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs directory. Jump back to your Metro interface and you’ll see your Shutdown button appear as a brand-new tile. Click once, and off goes your system!
