What <i>is</i> .NET?
-
Here is a technical overview of .NET at Ars Technica. Pretty good read, answers some questions I'm sure all of you might have.
In a remarkable feat of journalistic sleight-of-hand, thousands of column inches in many "reputable" on-line publications have talked at length about .NET whilst remaining largely ignorant of its nature, purpose, and implementation. Ask what .NET is, and you'll receive a wide range of answers, few of them accurate, all of them conflicting. Confusion amongst the press is rampant.
The more common claims made of .NET are that it's a Java rip-off, or that it's subscription software. The truth is somewhat different.

Thanks for that, Todd. I've always thought of .NET as simply MS's language-independent version of JVM. Now I understand it a lot better. Simon It's one for you, nineteen for me Sonork ID 100.10024

Thanks Todd/ Damn good article. One of the best I've seen. Nish Nish was here, now Nish has gone; He left his soul, to turn you on; Those who knew Nish, knew him well; Those who didn't, can go to hell. I like to :jig: on the Code Project Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain www.busterboy.org

[snip] Whilst it's true that C# would have a hard time surviving without .NET (due to its specification lacking any native library), .NET doesn't need C#, and would be complete without it [/snip] That is a very important and often un-noticed point.

However I have detected a couple of anomalies in the texts, unfortunatly I don't know whether this is caused by crud articles I have also read. Regardz Colin J Davies
