I am assuming the 13 thousand apps estimated above is for all devices and all marketplaces. Right now, I’m seeing 7,630 apps on my Surface RT.

As to your example, there cooking apps that gives full recipes and even video instructions. try them out most are free.

Autodesk have been slow with their development… but they have a monopoly so they dont care so much, of course i like their software but what i mean its i dont expect to see their apps released anytime soon. they will but its like asking for a call of durty for winrt. it needs time to be developed and knowing the slowness of the companies like Autodesk, its hard to think about another App from them for like 3 months.
also Why rush if the computes that matter in these products are x64 and you can run their $3500+ autodesk software normally in desktop?
I like Autodesk and 3dsmax but they aren’t fast in alot of things.

Microsoft store apps will be mostly consumer apps for now. I doubt we’ll see any prosumer apps anytime soon. It’ll take most of their apps the longest to fit into a touch ecosystem.

If you start getting “big name” software in there (heavy duty software), you can expect that the number of apps will just explode.
