10-4

My colleagues in Redmond, Brian Keller and his crew, have launched a new video podcast called 10-4. This is a weekly video/screencast featuring what's new in Visual Studio 2010 and the .NET Framework v4.0. If you're interested in what we've got in store for you when VS2010 ships, or if you're just plain curious about what we're cooking up, this new video podcast is for you.

Episode 1: Downloading and Using the Visual Studio 2010 September CTP
For this first episode of 10-4, we’ll look at how to download and use the Virtual PC image of the Visual Studio 2010 September CTP. We’ll give you tips on how to download this massive (7GB+ compressed) VPC, show you how to get past some pesky expiration issues, and get you started with the CTP walkthroughs. Lastly we’ll cover where to get assistance and provide your feedback about this release.

In future episodes we’ll dive more deeply into the technical underpinnings of Visual Studio 2010 and the .NET Framework 4.0, but for this first episode we wanted to make sure everybody could get the CTP and follow along at home.

Visual Studio 2010
If you'd like to learn more about Visual Studio 2010, check out our MSDN Developer Conference events (they're coming to a city near you in January), the PDC videos on Channel 9, and the Visual Studio 2010 developer center on MSDN (note: like updated) as well as the Visual Studio 2010 product feedback center.
