Action-packed video: Steve and Steve on parallelism
InformIT just posed a new video (part 1, part 2, part 3) in their OnMicrosoft series in which Steve Toub and I chat with Ted Neward about parallel computing. I just watched some of it, and I was pleased to observe that Steve and I don't look like total dorks. Aside from them repeatedly misspelling my name during the video, I hope you'll find it interesting and informative if not dramatic and gripping. :)

Why don't you guys 'parallelise' that appauling GDI+ rendering on WinForms. Why on earth is this still such a dog for all applications in 21st century...Anonymous

If only it were that easy, Ree! I suspect that bad serial algorithms are the least of the performance problems in GDI+. :) That said, our team is talking to both the UI Frameworks teams in DevDiv and the Windows Experience team in the Windows client org about improving performance on multicore hardware.
