This is simply not true! .NET has been a failure up to date. Now, MSFT can turn that around. But as of today, .NET has been a bust. In fact, I am not too sure it will ever be remotely as successful as MSFT expects. How do you do web services with .NET when it will only run on Windows? Who uses Windows for mission critical stuff?

You know what though, Olu- it doesn't matter whether .net is a success or not. There are only 5 remaining major players in software- msft,orcl and on the apps side sap,psft,sebl (some say sebl will fall but I am optimistic for them). On the .net side, there used to be an entire industry of b2bi software companies which competed with .net- tibx,vitr,webm etc. and many of these are just plain gone. The task is still there to do EAI between apps and where will that business go... msft or orcl, imo.
