I also enjoyed seeing people type as bad as I do >:). I think it would have been better to explain a little more about the deferred execution of linq queries and the way they are translated into other types of queries. For example I got an error in a query that looked liked 'from var m in ... where x==null OR x.value=m.x' because it was FIRST translated into an SQL query and at that time x was null, so x.value threw an exception. But all in all, very nice and to the point. Very nice presentation, with a smooth transition from 2.0 concepts to the new 3.5. I also enjoyed seeing people type as bad as I do >:).
