Glad that I have an actual tablet instead of a VM

Last night I continue my journey of messing with developing for Windows 8 Metro, and found that having an actual device (mine is EeePC Slate) gave me way better development experience comparing with using Windows 8 Developer Preview on VMWare Workstation 8.  I tried the VMWare apporach last weekend and the performance was so sluggish that eventually I gave up.  With EeePC Slate, the turn around time between testing the real touch UI and coding becomes way faster.

Now all I need is to be persistence and continue working on my little Metro app.
