Who is "somebody," and where do they come from? .Net has tons of community support. The MSDN boards and the blogosphere are thriving and StackOverflow is extremely .NET friendly. Microsoft sponsors MVPs and provides tons of free training content and solid (in most cases) documentation. Product teams and individual architects and developers inside and outside MS publish blogs, videos, tutorials etc. out the wazoo. Microsoft charges money for its products and development tools, but their goal is to get people using their software, and that means getting people to create software running on their platform. Supporting developers who want to write software in .NET is in their best interest.
