              • Feedback loops and Black Holes

                Customer feedback to Microsoft on technical content seems to go into a black hole. There is no "loop." TN/MSDN has changed from "star ratings" to "helpful ratings." What happens to this info? What action is taken on it?

                                      I have VMware and vShield, how do I add Hyper-V and configure a Microsoft firewall config that works for both (interop). How do I do that? Please add powershell commands, including the module for VMware.

                                        I want to use my own images for the Win 8 login screen.
