Going deep inside the Windows Kernel from Channel 9

A christmas present from Channel 9, indeep with the Architects of the Windows Kernel, this is some hardcore stuff, so watch it after new years...

Rob Short is the corporate vice president in charge of the team that architects the foundation of Windows Vista. This is a fascinating conversation with the kernel architecture team. It's our Christmas present to all of the Niners out there who've stuck with us day after day.

This is a very candid interview. We even ask "do you ever wish the registry had never been developed?" Charles Torre does this "going deep" interview. Out of all the interviews we've done this one is the most interesting because this team has such a deep impact on how reliable, scalable, secure, etc Windows Vista actually will be.

In this video you'll meet:

Darryl Havens, Architect.
Richard B. Ward, Architect.
Rich Neves, Architect.

Enjoy! And, don't be suprised if your brain hurt the way ours hurt after having this conversation.
