yosit — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 14:29:38 GMT

You can call it a Developer Launch for Vista and Office when it's not it ;) we found out that when we say launch people think about marketing, SO we came up with new content with an average level of 350 about anything you can think of in developing application on our platform. after extensive feedback from 900 people about the content we came up with this - about 30 different sessions by the top notch speakers.
