Event Overview
Web and cloud may be all the rage, but many developers are still doing hardcore client development. If you are among them, this Boot Camp is for you!

In this full-day event, we will explore how to maximize your impact on the Windows client. Our interactive sessions will include topics from throughout the Windows development platform. We will look at application compatibility and transitioning your applications to Windows 7, integrating with the Windows taskbar, developing for IE9, utilizing the cool functionality in the Sensors and Location Platform so that your application better responds to its current environment, leveraging the multitouch capabilities (especially in kiosk scenarios), and creating Silverlight 4 out of browser applications.

This event is a unique opportunity, partnering classroom learning with hands-on-labs and leveraging experts to advise you so we can help you “win” with Windows 7.

Please bring a laptop with the following software installed:

• Windows 7
• Visual Studio 2008 or 2010: http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/
• Windows API Code Pack: http://bit.ly/bGKULt
