Lets forget the ad hominem stuff and focus on the underlying issue on which you are casting aspersions.
MS really has made its intention clear: somehow MS is going to make in-memory data processing more feasible in NET. How? I know of one way, and MS people keep referring to it as well, and I've presented reasons to support my view. In response you really need to offer an alternative mechanism for MS to deliver it if you are so sure I'm wrong. Whether you and your friends think you will ever use the result doesn't really answer that question, does it?
So I'm asking again: how is MS going to make in-memory data processing more feasible in NET? How will it overcome the resource-hogging barrier?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
