A conversation with Windows Vista Kernel Team.
This is Channel 9s Christmas Present to geeks everywhere. A candid conversation with the team thats building Windows Vistas kernel. I even ask if they wish the registry had never been invented. But, Charles Torre did most of the interviewing. Being in a room with these guys for an hour makes my brain hurt.
They give a lot of details about how they are rearchitecting Windows to make it easier to ship new, higher-quality, versions of the OS.
I dont remember any conference where these four people get together and just have a simple conversation. In 2006 Im going to push for even more corporate transparency into why we do the things we do. Since much of the world has bet on our products, shouldnt the world have better conversations with the folks who build those products?
Think about the impact on the world these four people have. If there are going to be hundreds of millions of people using Windows Vista (and thats if its a market failure), and these four people find a way to increase computer speeds even a few seconds a day (or do something similarly impressive to increase productivity), imagine the economic impact of that.
