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…”

- WMV (WMV Video)
When we went over to London for vacation this summer we took our camcorders and got a tour of Microsoft's research center in Cambridge, England.
Here's who you'll see:
Mitch Goldberg, Senior Programme Manager
14:00 Richard Black, Researcher, talks about networking research that will show up in Windows Vista.
26:40 Ralf Herbrich and Thore Graepel Xbox Research. These guys play games as part of their research. How fun!
41:20 Peter Key, Senior Research, gives us a tour, talking about what kinds of research is being done. We also compare Oxford to Cambridge (Peter went to Oxford).
46:13 Ken Wood. He runs the computer mediated living group. They have sociologists and psychologists looking at the human side of computers.
58:66 we meet the rest of Ken's team.
01:06:20 Natasa Milic-Frayling, integrated systems research. Lots of interesting research in user interaction and how people use software to use the Internet. She gives an interesting demo of information browsing improvements at 1:13:00.
01:17:33 Steve Hodges. Hardware researchers. This guy has tons of cool hardware in his lab.
