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…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Windows Vista is the first general purpose consumer-grade OS that provides transactional support (ACID) for file IO and Windows Registry modification operations (these are only two of the consumers of KTM - point is, you are enabled to write your own).
In this interview, we meet Jon Cargille, the software developer who owns KTM, and Christian Allred, the software developer who owns TxF (Transactional File System). If you are curious about how KTM and TxF work and how you can leverage their functionality
in your applications on Vista, this interview is for you. We also briefly touch on TxR (Transactional Registry).

Enjoy. Jon and Christian are among the best and brightest and they've created some revolutionary technologies in Vista that are specifically designed for you, developers, to innovate on Vista.
Code on,

Cool video
Thanks for sharing
Charles, do you plan a Going Deep in Garbage Collectors,how they work and why isn't it trivial to use them in kernel and drivers (like in Singularity) - or in transactional code?
In fact, yes.
Great to hear that
Great video indeed! I thought some of you might be interested in the managed code story around TxF and TxR, so I've written a few blog posts on this topic that you might want to check out:

Have fun! KTM/TxF/TxR are worth your time
