    Businesses do web applications so they don't have to worry about installing the .net framework on the clients. I don't think it is a big deal, but this why it is done that way.

    I didn't get any requirements for the signature

    Well, yeah, that works. Just like going with a peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich means you don't have to worry about burning the bacon. I guess it beats Java Applets. Or ActiveX...

        Yes, and Java Applets changed the web ... Really unfortunate too, Java Applets had some amazing potential.

        Totally agree with this. Java Swing has most futures then, let say, MFC from visual point of view but it’s all web.

          I overheard a conversation at the office this morning in which someone claimed to know that ASP.NET is "going away" in favor of Silverlight. Now did i miss an announcement somewhere or did someone at my office get snookered by the Silverlight marketing team?

              I think they meant to say that Silverlight is going away because nobody's using it.

                Yes the only problem with it was it was too slow that time and it needed better hardware. I think it should have been released 5 years back, probably it would have took off. Timing is very important for technology.

                    if you use Silverlight for all the cool sound/video/3D graphics, I can see why yo might think it's going away, but if you look at teh socket support, local communication etc, it solves alot of problem associated with business web apps. That said, Asp.Net is still the host and somethings cannot yet be done in Silverlight , so it's not going to replace it, but it's ability to argument it are pretty impressive.

                                Yeah, in rather the same way that VB6 has been deprecated :) ..and yes, it seemed like a good idea to ask for arguments that support the claim being made. The technologies do not only noy compete, they also target different platforms. I'd go as far as saying that WinForms, WPF, DirectX, ASP.NET and Silverlight complement each other.

                                      if you use Silverlight for all the cool sound/video/3D graphics, I can see why yo might think it's going away, but if you look at teh socket support, local communication etc, it solves alot of problem associated with business web apps. That said, Asp.Net is still the host and somethings cannot yet be done in Silverlight , so it's not going to replace it, but it's ability to argument it are pretty impressive.

                                      I thought that was what you were doing: "ASAP.NET is going away!" "No it's not!" "Yes it is!" "Is not!" "Is so!" :-D ;P

                                          It is being phased out. Didn't you see the specs for C# 4.0? In the year 2015 it will be C# == VB.NET.
