How to Open a command Prompt in Windows 8 ?

Well , i got my Windows 8 Developer Preview installed on a VirtualBox and first thing i noticed was the cool Tiles based start screen .

I was trying to configure something , so i wanted to open the command prompt . I expected that when i clicked the start icon , it will show me the traditional menu when i could open the command prompt .

This will take you to the Tiles based start screen instead :)

But there are 2 simple ways to Open Command Prompt .

1. Hit Windows Key + R to Open the Command Prompt

2. Use Charms Bar to Search . To Open the charms bar , Press Windows Key + C

Click on the Search and you will get screen to search for Apps . Type command and click search icon . This will show the command  prompt in the filtered softwares . Double click on it to open the  the command prompt .
