I see M$ as reactionary in the dev industry today. They are a minor aspect in the majority shareholders section. They are bringing in new styles of how to work as well as roll with outside influences like jQuery, HTML5,.... Looks like every six months there is a new thing within the information presentation space and sometimes it stands out as the next great thing other times it fails. Every company has to these waves of new and great or new and a firecracker. I am happy that M$ will embrace the values that HTML5 brings to the table instead of force me to do everything in Silverlight. < currently not doing either :( > -- Stephen Russell Unified Health Services 60 Germantown Court Suite 220 Cordova, TN 38018 Telephone: 888.510.2667 901.246-0159 cell _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
