David,

>>>You can specify to the query engine your select statements, where and orderby and group by clauses, and so forth, either through talking directly to the query framework and setting properties, etc, or by language extensions that do that automatically for you.

Yes, they said they believe is more powerful than SQL (maybe they meant TSQL..)

>>>Out of the box it will talk to (query into) any .NET collections with a certain interface (IEnumerable, I think)as well as databases and XML documents. Because a query done this way will result in a collection, you can then use SQL commands to further 'drill down" into that first result set, much as we can do today with Fox cursors.

Correct, DLINQ for data, XLINQ for xml, if I heard well, Anders said DLINQ is the next version of ADO.
