As we’re now winding down the week and with 7 days under our belts with the Beta product – I thought I’d quickly share some awesome reading material that can go along with your Beta Evaluation of WS8.
I love troubleshooting things – it’s the challenge of getting things working again after some other “IT Expert” or “curious user” (a.k.a. P.I.T.A user) goes in and messes something up. Well – the technical writers in the product group for WS8 have been busy and have published a great library of resources for troubleshooting.
