It's nice of Bill to make these available in a Microsoft-only video format

Call me a cynic, but if Bill really wanted to be nice, rather than trying to foist Sliverlight on everyone, he'd make these videos available in a format that pretty much everyone could use (eg, Flash video) or an vendor-neutral format.

And yes, I know that you can get a Sliverlight-cloned system under Linux (Moonlight), but this is still encumbered technology, and I don't want to install yet another piece of software, when Flash works fine, and I can use MPlayer under Linux to plays Flash videos.

But then again, this is nothing new for Microsoft.
