Well, they kind of went all in at the time, even planned to base the next Windows version on .NET.
- pjmlp 10y agoWhich on my opinion, failed mostly due to the tension between WinDev (C++) and DevTools (.NET), than anything else. Projects like Singularity and Midori prove that if the willingness was there to actually cooperate, they would have managed it. Now we have .NET Native/UWP, which is basically the original idea of .NET when it was still called COM+ Runtime and AOT compiled.
