One of the most interesting is that .NET applications are
actually
compiled to native code as well, before being made available
for download.

Assuming Microsoft eventually releases a native code compiler
for C#
(better than NGEN), this will make D use harder in the
enterprise. :\

This compiler in the cloud things seems really scary. All my
apps will not work anymore if microsoft decide so ?
I really dislike this cloud trend. It seems that everyone wants
to sell me software as a service somehow.
From my lastest projects in the Fortune 500 world, I can tell
everyone is jumping with both feets into cloud stuff.
For the lovers of software freedom this is scary. In a world of
software as service and patent trolls, having the source code
available seems to no longer be enough.
