Great talk, inspiring and funny!

One thing though: while he was showing that it is (was) difficult to predict the future with some examples, he didn't mention anything about how huge and powerful is Linux today :D

I had high hopes for this talk, but it felt somewhat unfocused. Filled with buzzwords and rushing through features, I would have loved fewer but more pronounced topics.

Well presented and Microsoft did really change, but the presentation tried just a little too hard. For example the part about UEFI: I didn't think it fit with the rest of the talk and was only appointing blame: Look, we are all good now, it's just others who make us appear bad. Nevertheless, inspiring and not a sales pitch :)

Much like the keynote, this was a thought-provoking and well worth the time.

Clever, funny, inspiring — that's what a keynote should be like.

Very well done and based on a huge amount of experience, though not as inspiring as Kevlin right before.

I'm a bit divided on this one: While the presentation was great, I found the content to be too shallow. It was kind of a "We did this and it worked, we tried that and it didn't work", but without really giving any meaningful reason.
Don't bash technologies (like Python in the title or Ruby in the talk) without going into some detail.

Rather uninspired marketing appearance topped off with one of the least appealing slide sets. Huge difference in quality to the following two keynotes.

While I wouldn't agree with every single point, the overall message was very clear and thought provoking. Probably the talk with the highest direct impact for me.

Good overview and great enthusiasm though nothing really new
