I've linked up several new 10-4 videos to the webcast and video archive listing on my web site. I also have several (now somewhat dated) presentations as well as upcoming events and upcoming webcasts listed up there as well.

Hopefully, if I manage to carve out some time later this today or this week, I will write a post that lists a load of readiness resources for IE8, Azure, ASP.NET AJAX, and Visual Studio 2010 I've been hoarding. Yeah, some of them date back a couple of months, but these are readiness resources (translation: light training resources) scattered hither and yon across our various Microsoft.com sites and properties. I thought I'd collate them together into a single post or few (topically grouped, of course) to make it easier for you to find them.

Before that post I need to share an update on my experiences with the Windows 7 RC I have running on my Dell Latitude E6400 work laptop. Very, very nice… Powerful, fast, and quite robust. I am very pleased, even though it took me the better part of a month getting it set up and configured with all my preferred apps and customizations. If I didn't tweak everything like crazy, I swear I could be more agile.
