How could you use the adjective "indescribable" truthfully?
What, no harmony? I think you need some C# developers there to add layers of harmony, and get someone in the compilers team to back it up with bass; oh, and doesn't Microsoft have an orchestra? Tongue Out

Good job! I particularly enjoyed the interview at the beginning! (We need more VB interviews Charles)

loves me some c# with braces and strudel,
Mem'ry and thread pools all tied up with strings
Multi-line lambdas makes four cores go sing.
When the queues pop,
and the locks drop,
when I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember those nice c# things,
and then I don't feel sooooo bad.

Merry Christmas Microsoft,
and to all a good build.


Oh now that was good! Now I know what I'm singing on christmas to annoy my VB buddies hehe. [6]

Make it so
Now that put's a whole new perspective on the notion of "Coding as art".

Thanks to everyone involved, and Happy Holidays!

Wonderful video. Yet again Channel 9 in 2007 has played a key role in keeping me so rabidly enthusiastic about the .NET platform - I've learnt lots of stuff via your videos, been introduced and become seriously interested in topics I'd never have imagined learning about, all while being inspired and entertained. Tip of the hat to you all and may you all have a very happy and productive 2008!
Kudos folks.
