I want to send my PS2 (non-slim version -- really really old) video to the component channel, and I bought (twice) cables that say they will do just that for both the PS3 & 2.

In this video, our good friend Jason Olson chats with Maarten Van De Bospoort, Mark Taylor, and Pat Altimore about Windows Server 2008 Application Compatibility. We discuss a bunch of topics in this video that are very pertinent to the topic of Application Compatibility on Windows Server 2008, from Session 0 Isolation to IIS 7 to Mandatory Integrity Control, among many others (I will give any of you five geek points if you can work in "Session 0 Isolation" or "Mandatory Integrity Control" into your next dinner party conversation!). Expect to see some deep dives on the various topics mentioned in this video (and others) in the coming weeks and months. Some links mentioned in the video and others of interest: http://microsoft.mrmpslc.com/InnovateOnWindowsServer/ http://devreadiness.org/default.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/windowsserver/default.aspx Tune in!
