Interesting, I was wondering when Microsoft would include the recently purchased technologies of WinInternals/SysInternals into the Windows product.
Looks like the new “Windows RE Notes” blog details the upcoming components, though there is only an introductory post at this time. Based on Windows PE, Windows RE will provide a recovery environment for Windows installations that have gone sour.

It’d be nice if this were true, guess we’ll wait this one out to see.

Yup, taxes are criminal and we need serious reforms. I've always said that if you want to see a tax revolt, make withholdings illegal and have Americans write a tax check every payday. They'll revolt for sure. You don't miss what you never had.
