I used the Sound Recorder in Windows 8 during a training course and it was pretty clear. I'd recommend using One Note though to keep things organized.
Is there a way to record the srceen on surface rt???? any applications?
thanks
If you mean 'take a screenshot' you just have to touch the Windows button and volume down buttons at the same time. The screen will blink if you are successful. The pix will go to Picture Library > Screenshots.
I tried a couple of Metro apps like Pocket Recorder that all seemed to work great...while I was in the app. As soon as tried to do something else, they stopped recording. Now, I just use the standard sound recorder app from the desktop. This runs in the background just fine. It lacks the flashy UI but gets the job done.
