CodeProject does Redmond - Part 6

I popped over to Redmond to meet with the Microsoft team last week and will be writing up the trip in daily installments each noon (US EST)
The current installments are:

The Journey

Seattle and the Microsoft Campus

The Microsoft Team

Visual C++

The Compilers

The Libraries

Part 6 is, for the moment, the last installment. Apologies about the short notice for question time. While in the meeting with the Product Managers this page was bought up on screen and we talked about each question that had been posted. You guys had a (brief) window directly into the bowels of Microsoft - pretty cool!
