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)
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- MP4 (iPod, Zune HD)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Jason Garms sits down with the channel 10 to show off his personal Vista Work Space. He's running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition and he uses four twenty-four-inch monitors connected to his machine. He's uses three of them in portrait and one in landscape to suit his architectural needs. How cool would this be playing Flight Sim X? Jason takes us through his set-up.

Didn't really think to highly of this interview, to be honest. Maybe it's because I already have my own dual-monitor setup, but it was just not interesting.
1. He wouldn't even disclose the exact models of video card. It's not that important I guess, but it seems he artificially stepped around it.
2. Predicts that the majority of consumer systems will support 4 monitors in the lifetime of Vista. Sorry, but the average consumer has no idea that any computer can do dual screens, let alone 4. And most come with graphics systems built into the motherboard. And multiple monitors serves no purpose for the vast majority of games. Plainly not going to happen soon, if ever.
3. No discussion of what could be better about Vista and multiple monitors. For instance, why is the taskbar still limited to only one monitor? Microsoft needs to either add the features that UltraMon has or else buy them out and integrate it.
4. No discussion of how a programmer could benefit. It's Microsoft, we know you have a lot of programmers...tell us how they use it.
5. What actual new features does Vista give us over XP with regards to multiple monitors? Everything I just saw looked the same as it is in Vista.
Please go for more depth in these stories. Interview multiple people with different setups. I honestly feel that I would have learned the same thing by seeing just a picture of his setup as I did watching the entire video.

Agreed.
Agreed.
Reminds me of Larry's setup...not to mention your Flight Sim X injunction. Good stuff, albeit a flat interview.
