The Microsoft Developer Show #15 - Managed C++ and .NET Performance
It’s been a couple of weeks since this show was recorded but hopefully despite the poor audio quality it is still worth listening too. Nick Wienholt is one of leading experts when it comes to .NET Performance and working with Managed C++.

No, it might have been worth listening to if the audio quality was up to scratch.
Professionalism it ain’t

Sorry you thought that it wasn’t worth listening to despite the poor audio quality. Unfortunately with physical separation as it is there are times when audio quality does suffer. Agreed we should probably have just canned that recording and done it again. There is always the trade off between getting content out v’s making it a professional recording. Perhaps I should do a post about how little time I have and the fact that the shows go out at all is a pure miracle. I hope that people still get value out of them and in the future I will try to be more picky about the audio quality – I did put a warning in the post that the quality was kinda low so hopefully people will come back for other shows where the quality is better.
Any constructive comments are always appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to a) listen and b) comment !!!
