    Venue 8 Pro Review

    I received my Dell Venue 8 Pro on Friday and my impressions over the last couple of days is this is the type of device for which Windows 8 was made. To start, the form factor is near perfect. 8 inches is still a little too large for my taste as I’ve really grown accustomed…
