How amusing. The website requires Flash. Microsoft couldn't even put the website together with their own Silverlight, eh? Marc

I doubt you'll get much. He's clearly confused already.

I doubt it. If it isn't intuitive then we need to fix it. - Chris Maunder

I can only imagine that he means that he thinks Flash is so crappy that it actually enhances Microsoft's half-baked products (actually, let's try 1/4 baked) like Silverlight. I certainly wouldn't make that claim, for the record. Marc

I highly doubt that his mental state would allow such a complex thought process and conclusion.

Yes please shell repeat. I guess that your source of information is the same as "The capital of Australia is Milborn", right?

Did you miss the memo? Microsoft bought Adobe today. They are planning on rewriting Photoshop in WPF.

Spill the beans, Grizzly - or else I'll just tell everyone that Interacx is built on Silverlight technology ;) :p :)

Reference[^] These are the controls that Silverlight 2 Beta 1 provides: Button Calendar CheckBox DataGrid DatePicker GridSplitter HyperlinkButton ListBox RadioButton ScrollViewer Slider ToolTip WatermarkedTextBox OK, it's beta. But where's the ComboBox? Where's the RadioButton? Where's the GroupBox? Where's the Tab control? Where's the Menu bar, Toolbar, Statusbar? These are standard things any 3rd party vendor worth their salt provides. Look at DevExpress, Infragistics, Telerik, and a host of fly-by-night companies out there. What is Microsoft doing? All that money, talent, resources, and they produce junk. Take a look at their DataGrid example. Pathetic. You can't sort by clicking on the header, you can't move the columns, I'm actually amazed you can resize them! Maybe my expectations are too high, but it's ironic that you threaten to tell everyone that Interacx is built on Silverlight, because I was rather hoping that Silverlight would be the technology I could use to create web-based Interacx clients. I'm investing in Telerik, because certainly, I don't want to wait until Microsoft catches up in a couple years. They are so far behind in what other companies offer at this point, their only hope is to buy out their competitors. Marc
