What a fascinating video, and I am only 15 minutes in! Keep up the great work, looking forward to PDC vids!

It's neat to hear from people who are (mostly) outside of the Microsoft bubble.

Keep the videos coming. This one has helped accellerate an unusually slow Friday afternoon.

This was a terrific video, with a great subject matter. As someone who sells to hospitals and clinics, I gained a lot by listening to the CIO and the physician. Their concerns about technology are different from one I might expect.

Great questions from Robert. They hit some areas that are especially important, like HIPPA, privacy, efficiency and others.

My only criticism is Robert's nervous laughter. It was quite loud and out of place in this environment. Perhaps it was because of the microphone placement. It was distracting. I would recommend trying to tone that down.

Great video, my favorite on Channel 9. You should interview more CIO's. They are sometimes the most interesting subjects. How about Microsoft's CIO? Boeing? Washington Mutual? All are big users of Microsoft technology. Go for it!

Wow, that was actually way more interesting than I thought it would be. It's nice to see people using the technology and are able to speak so well about it.

It's also good that Robert kept the loud laughter down (I'm assuming it's because he was in a hospital with serious guys in suits). Smiley

I'm the video guy

I'm trying to remember not to laugh so much. It's hard, cause it's just something I do.

I think it's cool that the guy with the tablet had obviously watched and seen what channel9 was about.

Do you ever see Linux winning the medical market?
It is so critical to have things working that I can't even conceive Linux running on embedded device of a doctor.

Laughter is the best medicine Wink

Thank you. A very interesting video. Always nice to hear from the folks who are involved in running the software. Some interesting points about filling in forms and how the fields can sometimes restrict the user rather than help them. (A lesson I've learnt from in the past)

Seeing them carrying around those Tablet PC's makes me wish I could afford one for when I do the 'sales/analysis' part of my job. Sure would be easier than lugging around reams of paper and a laptop.
