When I highlighted the word and right-clicked on it, one of the options that came up was "Ask Cortana." Sure enough, it found it right away.

I'm liking it so far.
I installed last night. It is a mix of W7 and 8. A bit funky compared to stand alone 7 but I'm used to the tiles and such as I have a Windows Phone 8.1. Cortana on my phone addresses me as Lord. It is kind of fun when she says, "May I help you, Lord?"

Anyway, it is supper nice to have my phone and computer sync flawlessly. Other than that my games run. No other issues found.

Thanks for the freebie MS!
