[ale] .NET

[msmith at mikeandmel.com]

I prefer using Linux for everything but as far as the
whole Visual Studio .NET development environment, I
have to give Microsoft a thumbs up.  I have been using
it for nearly a year now and it is pretty nice for
developing Microsoft applications.  It's what Microsoft
should have done from the beginning.  I wish there was
a development environment like this in Linux.  I have
played around with different development tools in Linux
and nothing is as complete as VS.NET.  If there was a
tool like this in Linux, we wouldn't be mentioning
Microsoft at all.... :)
