Microsoft Microsoft plans to extend its mainstream development tooling to Silverlight, its Flash challenger, and add support for dynamic languages. At the Mix '07 Web developer and designer conference, Microsoft executives said the company will allow .Net developers to create applications for Silverlight, its alternative to Adobe Systems' Flash format. Microsoft on Monday released an alpha version of Silverlight 1.1 that will allow people to write applications using .Net applications such as C#. Version 1.0 of Silverlight will be available this summer.

Right. Microsoft is still investing more money than anyone else in IT. And while other players can work on a few fields, Microsoft has people researching almost any field in IT.

Irony is people is yelling at Microsoft not to be innovative and markets yell at MS because they invest too much in researching... lol
