When you leave, try the chilli dogs at the airport. Best I ever had.

Just persuing the Visual Studio Live Event put on by 1105 Media (visual studio mag, etc):
Visual Studio Live! -- Live! 360 Events[^]
From the marketing materials...
Track Topics
1. Visual Studio / .NET Framework
2. Web Server
3. Web Client
4. Windows Client, including Windows 10/WinRT, and WPF
5. Software Practices
6. Application Lifecycle Management
7. Cloud Computing
8. Database and Analytics
9. Mobile Client
WinRT? They haven't spoken about that for a couple of years now really.
Also, the obviously missing piece from this is UWA / UWP* (Universal Windows Apps / Universtal Windows Platform).
*I know. But this is supposed to be the "new" way to create apps. 
Edit
Here's an interesting article about WinRT vs UWP
WinRT is the elephant in the room at the Build conferenc[^]
And the pull line from that article because infoworld's site is terrible.
Will WinRT thrive in the guise of UWP, or are we looking at a repeat of the demises of Silverlight and ActiveX

If you click to get details, then it would mention Universal Windows apps and not WinRT...

Okay, I clicked your link and you are right about that. It is quite a terrible site though, isn't it?
<SARCASM>Well, I'm sure the conference will be far batter than what this site is showing.</SARCASM>

What? 
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

(*) Tongue-twister message of the day
"Phase-locked loop lock lost"
Yes, I actually had to add that as an error message today. I can't wait to hear what the translators say...

At least your error messages mean something, Error Code 99, please! (was use a WTF message from a radio unit I was working on, I then found that all errors would generate code 99 due to a firmware bug) that means googling until you hit something useful!

Actually, most of them are like this: "The frajmespanner has convolved with the hooji-whatsis to a level of 0.453; manually clean the overhead forbit-schtücher valves to correct".

I bet it was still more useful than "Error 86: Missed it by that much"
