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)
Nikolai Tillmann and Peli de Halleux give a short tutorial on Pex, an automated white box testing tool for .Net. The tutorial is a pair-programming session where they show us how
to get started with Pex in Visual Studio, starting from an (untested) piece of C# code:
- how to use Pex to explore the behavior of any method in your code,
- how to save the exploration results into a unit test suite,
- how to improve the generated parameterized unit tests to leverage Pex code exploration engine.
If you want to follow up the steps on your machine as well,

Dowload it, and try it... It rocks!
Edit: Ok. I've been playing with it for a half an hour and it looks very very very cool!!!
The academic download does not require Visual Studio. However, there is currently a bug in that installer which incorrectly checks for VS. We are currently preparing a new drop for the academic download and will update the link shortly.
Sorry for the inconvinience.
Running on Win7 x64.
I'll soon be testing complex objects for WCF service calls - I'm not sure what I'll find.
