There's a couple of things here that I think are really, really sad. Firstly, a department within Microsoft comes out at an event, and they use plain English to show that they are supporting an exciting new technology. Next, a couple of groups - who make money from eyeballs - come out with inflammatory comments about what has been said. Finally, people like *you* (whomever is reading this right now) give justification to the comments made by those groups by going on about it. So in short, I don't really care who Mary Foley or TechCrunch are, or what qualifies them to publish stories with such an audacious and misleading title as: "Microsoft: Our strategy with Silverlight has shifted"Every minute and therefore money (via our eyeballs) we give to Mary and TechCrunch, is a minute that is not spent working out how to get the best out of these 2 technologiesThink about the people who are writing about this "debate" (debate? really?) and ask yourself what their motive is for writing in the first place
