I guess it would depend on what school of thought you come from...

Mere Mortals.NET provides *A LOT* of rich features for working business objects. A true R.A.D. tool.

However, those that come from using an 'Entity' won't like the framework because the behavior of business objects wraps the DataSet - therefore your data really doesn't have behavior.

The DataSet is so controversial as are Business Objects.

However, I believe Kevin does have something in the works for providing Entity Objects - I think he'll provide the best of both world then.

Some like it and others don't - just depends what school you come from.

I give it:
- 2-thumbs up
- 5 out of 5 gold stars
- Top Ratings
- The Royal Crown (and I don't mean the bottle)

... you get the picture! :)
