>> I almost feel sorry for all those Silverlight developers out there who dedicated a lot of time to this Same. My first job out of Uni was at a Windows shop, developing Silverlight and ASP "Line of Business" apps. Many of the devs there were fully bought-in to the MS ecosystem, and wouldn't hear of any doubts or worries over the future of their stack. Glad I got out of that gig when I did.
