So you're leaving Microsoft to build an app for the iPad, eh Paul?

Well, read your blog, and let me say, if working at Microsoft can't help you establish a comfortable retirement fund (think that's what you wrote), then someone like me is royally screwed; no skills, no degree, work for a lousy few bucks an hour... Whoa, I'm depressed.

Enough about me

Good luck Paul, I'm sure you'll be fine, but remember this: ..... I got nothing. See ya.

Usually when Paul go to Shanghai or any other places and get replaced by Larry, I will say hurray. But now, I really feel so sad. Since I knew Channel9, Tina was the first to leave, then Paul.

Laura, you should make Tina and Paul as your guests. Tina on episode 167 (I remember Tina asked you to make her appeared again in the past episode) and Paul on 200.

Maybe http://supersadtrombone.com has made him lots of money

If you leave it up to Balmer, Microsoft will relocate to China! I think what people don't get is that the American culture is what makes great Software companies. It will take the Chinese a million year to know what the US software industry is all about!

Buy Paul, you've been a great test subject - I mean co-host. Good luck.

(Also, blacqwolf isn't a particular gaming term. It's just something I came up with when signing up for an account several years ago.)

Godspeed! May you live long and prosper! about the iPad app...well as an entrepreneur one needs to fish where the fish are... currently Microsoft is building a pool for tablet type fishes - who can blame you? farewell thee, ping will not be the same without you.... while people are focusing on the China office vacancies THERE IS A VACANCY ON PING...Laura are you talking résumés? I am pretty sure I can do that 'pinging each other' gesture better than Paul.

Honestly, I'm bummed Paul is leaving. He's a cool guy. So how do you solve the problem of his absense?

By replacing him with an even COOLER guy, a much cooler guy; Ben the PC Guy.

He's probably not a Channel 9iner, but I say get him!

Ben the PC Guy for Ping!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OHHH THE HORROR NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The only show on ch9 that is really funny and. Whatever time there was a substitute host for anyone of you two the show was mondane.

Come on... make a stand up dummy with a LCD screen for the Paul's head, dress it up at will and and let Paul stream.
If nothing else at least try it.

Anyway all good Paul in your future endeavours.

This is indeed a sad day for all of us. Paul, you will be greatly missed. Ping will never be the same without you. It was you that made this show great. Your words of wisdom, teasing, and geek talk is what I looked forward to every week. I'd check every Monday to watch the latest Ping. If you weren't there, my heart sank. So Godspeed and I wish you success in the next chapter of your life. Farewell Paul, you will be greatly missed!

sucaritas — Thu, 20 Sep 2012 18:09:14 GMT

aaaa that sucks!!!
this is the only show I watch from channel9
worst thing is that none of the people that have substituted for Laura or Paul are cool.

hope this show doesn't go down hill from here (probably will :()
i mean when either one is absent which one is the person you think about, like "hey cool maybe that person will show up"
.......
the answer is none.

anyways best of luck paul.

So sad to see Paul leave. I too had to move onto other opportunities. However; that doesn't mean the world of Ping! is over I hope! If you need a co-host let me know Laura! I know somebody that would look great on camera with you!

-Best Regards
