Most of what I've seen people put into ActiveX and .NET can be done
otherwise by clever developers and still be standards compliant or at
least, cross-browser-compliant.
If you need to write proprietary code that is browser specific you are
not adhering to web standards. either it is important or it isn't, no
fence-sitting allowed..

Alas, all too many... can you say "ActiveX"? how about ".NET"?
Whatcha gonna do when boss/client demands some glitzy gizmo found on
some IE-only site? I mean universal access is a wonderful ideal, but
let's face it, it's still a pretty hard sell.
And to be fair, M$ has put forward the occasional useful innovation...
