Best Buy's Geek Squad has knocked itself out to get ready to help you with the launch of Windows 8.

Best Buy spent three years creating a plan for the launch of Microsoft's radical remake of Windows as a way to lure customers to its stores.

Two of those years were spent developing 45 exclusive Windows 8 computers and laptops, half of which feature touch screens. Best Buy spent 50,000 hours training the Geek Squad to walk customers through the ins and outs of Windows 8.

Best Buy also has created online tutorials to explain Windows 8.
