Krypton palette continues
After my post yesterday, about the custom Krypton palette I designed, I got some positive comments on Component Factory's forum. Phil Wright even suggested to include my palette in the Krypton Toolkit distribution. Of course I'm happy with this! So I first reviewed my palette, to see if I didn't miss anything, and made a few minor adjustments.

My Krypton palette
I've been using the free Krypton Toolkit for a while now, and I like it. I like the fact that you can easily design a custom palette to style your controls. For some of my applications, I've designed a custom palette that looks a bit shiny, a bit Vista-esque, and that uses Windows' system colors.

Singularity
Channel 9 has 2 new videos about Singularity, an experimental research OS that is (almost) entirely written in Spec#, a superset of C# (only a very small part of the kernel is written in assembly). The technology they're researching is just awesome. Here are some links:
- The Singularity website
- The Spec# website
- Channel 9 video 1: Singularity: a research OS written in C#
- Channel 9 video 2: Singularity Revisited
- Channel 9 video 3: Singularity III: Revenge of the SIP
- Channel 9 video 4: Singularity IV: Return of the UI (demo of Singularity!)
