A lot of people have trouble understanding what .NET really is and what its goals are. Mostly because Microsoft has done a good job of confusing everybody using terms that are not self-explanatory or with terms that mean more that one thing. This editorial will present my thoughts on .NET, what it really is, what its motivations and goals are, and why it is the next "big thing." Should we embrace it or fear it? Both, I daresay.

Ok the accusation was a bit much, but your article has given .NET a big boost in the eyes of readers here, while we have the choice in ignoring it or going with something like the Amiga DE instead, you've practically stated as fact that it's going to be the standard and we'd be wasting our time with anything else.. I wouldn't be surprised if for some you've removed any uncertainty in regard to .NET's future and any hope for its competitors. This industry is all about what others are doing or where others are moving and so little about what's best, articles like this can really make an impact and you know MS doesn't need any help.
