.NET languages depend on the CLR, which is a product. So, what's the bottom line? Okay, I feel the answer coming: Other parties are free to create CLRs, e.g. for other platforms. So, perhaps I should use another argument: .NET is only viable because MS has published IDEs that compile to IL, that can be understood by the CLR. And those IDEs are products.
But hey, perhaps you can give a clear definition of 'strategic'?!
