Channel9 is great. You've been achieving your apparent goals of informing developers and generating a more positive image for the company. I genuinely have a more favorable view of MS after seeing and hearing the individual workers in the videos and
occasionally dealing with a few of them one on one.
Unfortunately reality came along and threw me a staggering sucker punch with the following story regarding MS attempting to patent a representation of longitude and latitude.

This type of behavior overwhelms any warm, fuzzy feelings generated by channel 9.
