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…”
- High Quality WMV (PC, Xbox, MCE)
- MP3 (Audio only)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
Jossef Goldberg and
Jaime Rodriguez discuss the status of Client Profile in .NET 4 and VS2010 beta 2.
Client profile is a subset of the full .NET framework that includes only the assemblies needed for desktop client applications; the subset decreases download size and improves install time of the framework, improving the overall deployment experience.

It is good to find out that we do finally have a two tier .NET framework.. I know a lot of people that said that it would never happen, but why should every windows machine have workflow foundation/wcf/asp.net etc?
On a brand new Windows 7 machine, that most likey will come with .NET 3.5, will the client profile remove this or will they run side by side?
Hi vesuvius,
Yes, Windows 7 comes with .NET 3.5 SP1. .NET 4 will work side-by-side, so it will leave your .NET 3.5 Sp1 alone. From there on, you get .NET client profile + full as two skus.
Cheers,
Okay, correct me if I'm wrong here:
So if I want to write an app that uses HttpUtility.HtmlEncode or UrlEncode, the user needs to install the full framework, or I need to roll my own.
A lot of users will be installing .NET twice per version. I can already hear tens of thousands of people screaming "but I thought I already installed .NET 4".
I honestly fail to see how this is a good thing. More versions of .NET for embedded/mobile OSes would be nice, but more versions for Windows just seems silly.
