How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Mark Boulter, PM and technical lead, and Brian Pepin, development lead, talk to us about Cider, a future version of the visual designer that'll ship in Orcas, future version of Visual Studio.
They demo it too!

Thanks Robert,
Saw this on MSDNTV few days back (both versions seem same, and a little cut off at the end?)
Can you ask Brian/Mark if the designer (where they were dragging the controls and changing the various properties on the form) is built using Avalon or its .Net/Win32 like the Windows Forms?
Just wondering if like Sparkle, the Cide designer is itself built on Avalon to take advantage of some of the things we get in Avalon (looking at the adorners [square thingies around the custom control towards the end of demo] it looked like it was Avalon).
-- or maybe I am just confused...since its an Avalon designer, it has to be Avalon
?
Awesome stuff...can't wait to get hands on a CTP build.
My favorite features:
I'm familiar with today's Toolbox, so it's outstanding that Cider uses exactly the same drag and drop approach to get a general layout going. I sat down to the Sparkle lab at PDC, and found it to be way different from what I'm used to, so very glad to see that creating XAML will be "business as usual" when Orcas ships.
Both Cider and Sparkle can hand changes to each other, not breaking anything that the other one has done.
Design time can be made to listen to the control's events and tweak property values in your source code on-the-fly. Didn't know that was possible in Whidbey until now, so I'll have to update some of my WinForms controls to take advantage of that.
By the way, you guys are getting lots of mileage out of source code layout preservation!

what are orcas requiremnts?
Good work Robert.
Could someone tell me where I'll find more info about Orcas and Cider?
All we ever wanted
was everything
All we ever got
was cold
Get up
Eat Jelly
Sandwich bars and barbed wire
Squash every week
into a day
...oh to be the cream!
Orcas hasn't even begun yet. Devdiv is taking some time off this week to recharge the batteries after Whidbey. After that, we're spending some time to do some work on our engineering practices and after that we'll start Orcas. Orcas will be smaller than Whidbey scope wise, similar to the 2002 -> 2003 upgrade.
It'll be after Vista for sure
cider and orcas look very cool; although, i am just getting my teeth into vs 2005.
Why not make a clip using Clipster?
