Digging a little deeper into Windows 8 Primary Computer

Hi folks, Ned here again to talk more about the Primary Computer feature introduced in Windows 8. Sharp-eyed readers may have noticed this lonely beta blog post and if you just want a set-by-step guide to enabling this feature, TechNet does it best. Today I am going to fill in some blanks and make sure the feature's architecture and usefulness is clear. At least, I'm going to try.

Zoom...right over my head :D
