There are certainly public facing sites we own however that are on MOSS like http://www.gamesforwindows.com and http://www.obacentral.com/.
 
The intent of the Xbox example was to show that an internet facing SharePoint site doesn't have to look like SharePoint.  Big Smile

There is a nice list available of known SharePoint internet sites you can view here:

Thanks for checking out the video!  Feel free to send me any suggestions or feedback you have for future videos.  Be sure to drop by the Devs4Devs group next time you are on Facebook too.  Big Smile

What do you mean by the by the Presentation Templates, though? I'm not familiar with the term. Is it an SP1 thing?

On a side note, how is GFW.com put together. Are they using a filter/module to fix up the "/Pages/" in their URLs or some other trickery?

Cheers for posting the video!

Basically it is a customized MOSS Publishing Site that has been set up with numerous workflows, custom css files and usually some added on Features.  They will then save these out as custom site templates that they can offer to their customers.  Typically the only thing that needs to be added afterwards is some look and feel (which can be done via SharePoint Designer or directly on the site itself) and Flash content.

You can find a ton of different partner solutions up on OBACentral here.

If you curious about creating custom features, workflows, or more about web publishing Ted Pattison has some nice screencasts on Channel9 you can find here.

I agree about GFW.com I am curious now too. Tongue Out I don't know who was involved with it specifically but you might try checking out Sharepointpedia.com.  It has a good community around it that might have the answer.  They cover lots of topics and solutions too ranging from Sharepoint Customization to Silverlight.

I'm currently running Windows Server 2003 on my laptop for SharePoint dev, but eventually would like to move to running XP or Vista with a VPC for dev. It'd be much easier to use a prebuilt VPC than spinning one up myself.

Yes - I used a trial in the screencast which has the time limitation.  Wanted to be as realistic as possible. =) 

If you haven't seen it yet, check out the cool new SharePoint Developer site (http://www.microsoft.com/click/sharepointdeveloper/ .  It has an updated VPC image as well as some great tutorials.

Thanks,
Dave
