I don't get it
I understand that microsoft has entered a cooperation agrement with sun after many years of trying to destroy it. Now they finally have a problem and it is big news. IMHO .NET is finished as it is too propritary giving sun the edge. .net dosn't work well with Firefox or any of the major browsers out there. and IE is finished as a mainstreem browser. I see that on my website every day like 5% from linux systems and 60% from FF and a meger showing from IE at about 20%. People are finaly figguring out that if they actually want to use their computer instead of fighing spyware and virus they need to make the move to FF. That is just the way the market is moving.
