C#, a 21 year old programming language which consistently makes it into the top 6 programming languages by popularity in all methodologies of measuring, "launched and soon sank with little trace"? That's an interesting take.

- kobebrookskC3 5y agois that saying anything if microsoft is basically eternal? what, you think the company that makes excel and windows is gonna go out of business any time soon?

If at some point you don't need MS to do excel anymore, MS becomes irrelevant there, too. There are still Burroughs, Univac, and Honeywell computer companies, in a way, but they attract no attention.
