It is not my turf to argue over. I have never used .NET. I can only suggest
that it reflects badly on .NET when its creator is unable or unwilling to
use it.
As a broad statement, people tend to defend what they do, as well as the
tools they use. You raved about .NET before, but unless you have used many
IDE's and SDK's, on a whole wide variety of platforms (adverse to .NET), I
consider your review to be void.
Best wishes,
