Updates to the console

The BMC Remedy IT Service Management 8.1 includes a number of console changes that simplify navigation:

          Sorry Chirs, I'm still a little confused. You mentioned that you were trying to download something? You can't download information from docs.bmc.com, unless you meant that you were trying to create a pdf of the Enhancements to BMC Asset Management page and download that? All of the 8.1 enhancements for Asset Management are listed on this page.
