Bob - I'll take a stab at .NET in 100 words or less.
***************
MSFT built its value by empowering end users as a way to end run the centralized systems of the 1980s. The Internet is another opportunity to create value and disrupt the resurgent trend towards centralization being driven by their competitors.

They intend to create an infrastructure supporting development and deployment to the Internet as a platform, built around 4 pillars.
1) direct person-to-person interaction
2) easily accessed "building block" services
3) distributed "back end" support at the edge of the web
4) development environment (the .NET framework) making complex web systems as easy as applications for current industry standard systems
*********
and that's my 100 words...
