Ok, much of the childish ranting here does not bother me, but I can't let this one pass. 'dvduval': Did you bother to do any research before posting this? Have you ever heard of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation? Did you know that Bill Gates gives more money to immunize children in the third world than most countries do?

You are so far off the mark. 1) With.NET, there is no VM. MSIL is translated by a JIT to native code at runtime - NO VM. 2) This isn't about middleware or locking down the OS; it's about a more flexible execution model, not bound to a single processor architecture, or even OS. Get your facts straight before pontificating.
