Did he read Craig's book or did he do like he does with .net and read some 2nd hand anti-MS idiot's article and conclude that .net was worthless in handling data? My bet is he didn't read the book.

And before they did it, I already did in my OWN analysis of ADO.NET before .NET was released. Unlike you, I want to see for myself what a new technology means before I invest into it. Far more efficient....

What truth? Your conjecture. You didn't answer the question. Did you read Craig's book before condemning it?
