Carl and Mark have a great chat with Jonathan Zuck about protecting the free market system from anti-competitive legislation championed by companies that want to use Washington to limit the power and effectiveness of their competitors. Not only that, but they talk about some new announcements by Microsoft about what we can expect from new versions, and from Microsoft in the immediate future.

Carl and Mark have an enlightening talk with Juval Löwy about COM+ Enterprise Services, and how they relate to .NET. If you thought Enterprise Services (COM+) was just about Transactions and Object Pooling, you’ve got to check this out. Juval believes that we will all be using Enterprise Services in the near future because it will be time-prohibitive (and therefore cost-prohibitive) not to do so.
