    I often tell people that SQL will cure cancer. You can do anything with it. Which is why linq ticks me off so much. So many developers are pawning SQL off as deceased and irrelevant and the shouldn't.

    I had a look at Linq to SQL and thought I already do all of this why do I want to do it differently, and add another layer of abstraction in there. I chucked it. I then looked into Linq to Datasets as I spend a lot of time manipulating datatables in the UI support layer. A great dissapintment, try doing a left join between a datatable and a List<> and bind it to a DGV, what a pita. So it got pared down to the absolute minimum.
