My answer to all of this nonsense is the following: Every programmer has his or her own preferences. In the end, does it really matter? Code written in assembly or binary might impress us, but otherwise, who cares? Freedom to choose is grand. Let's face the facts, and see that the only reason there is a dispute over .NET is that it is written by a company that is apparently trying to create a monopoly in nearly every market related to technology that it can. Just leave it at that.
