Microsoft and Adobe aren't not programs, so they are neither
open-source nor closed-source.

Cows are not ducks and therefore do not quack.

This is also true, but doesn't contradict anything I said.  My
statement (at least if you ignore the typo) refutes your statement
that Microsoft is closed-source.  C'mon now; are you arguing me
because you hate Microsoft or because you really don't think
Silverlight will be a potentially reasonable alternative in the
future?  If the latter, you might try making some substantive points
in your argument's favor.

I replied with the cow/duck comment because I couldn't believe you thought (or at least implied that you thought) that I was referring to corporations as closed or open-source instead of their products and/or attitudes towards software licensing.

In regards to Silverlight, I do not have any evidence for or against besides Microsoft's track record. I trust Adobe much more than I trust Microsoft and Novell.
