[ale] .NET

[Geoffrey]

All the good things you can say about .NET will never remove the end 
goal of Microsoft.  In all they do, they want you to do it their way and 
only their way.  They don't want you to have a choice.

Go down the .NET road and I guarantee you eventually you will hear 'I 
told you so.'

This company has destroyed more people's lives then Eron and Worldcom 
put together.

Watch how they operate.  I can't imagine why anyone would consider 
anything the do to be the right way to go.

I also believe Mono is a huge screwup.  Look at history.  Any company 
that has worked with Microsoft has either been consume or destroyed.

Zealot, yes, but I can back up my beliefs with experience and examples.


As for Linux being more difficult then Windows.  Yes, it is true.  But, 
as we all continue use and abuse Linux, it continues to get better.  You 
can't just look at the short term gain.  You must look for the long term 
gain.

I personally can do more with my Linux box then Windows, because I have 
the source.

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
