Richard Allen
Mike speaks and we listen, another great presentation.
Ron Watson
Mike (as we all know) is an excellent presenter who knows his stuff. The presentation was very useful and will encourage me to think about using parallel extensions in future projects. I have done a little bit of threading before but generally shy away from it.
James Driscoll
Very interesting and informative (as always). The whole thing was well structured and gave us a good taste of what's to come, why and how cool it's going to be!
steve Goodman
Great presentation - really knows the subject.
David Shepherd
An extremely useful and interesting subject to me as multi-threading programming is right up my street. Nice to need some useful new features on the horizon to make my life easier.
Rob Cooper
Really enjoyed this presentation. I (and I think a lot of other) developers often avoid Parallel programming because it is such a pain in the ass! Mike has shown us that MS really have been working hard to make parallel programming a lot easier for us. Great slides, they really helped me to understand what was going one. Code samples were cranked out at a good pace, and understandable. Great job Mike!

Event Breakdown
Mike Taulty Parallel Extensions
The next version of the .NET Framework will come with new classes that start to chip away at the difficulties in building multi-threaded applications that are well placed to take advantage of the modern multi-core processor architectures and the future many-core architectures that are coming over the next few years. In this session, we'll introduce what that Parallel Extensions are, what they can do for you and take a tour around what's available in the current previews for you to start evaluating.
