>Paul Thurrott… "LightSwitch is not the future, I want to be very clear about that Leo. I am very upset about LightSwitch. Targeting a development tool towards IT pros is insane. Targeting an IT based development tool at native windows applications is doubly insane. And then charging you money for that is icing on the insanity cake that we're all now enjoying. It makes no sense at all to me. So, I don't know if they want to use that in a promo or whatever, but they’re free to go ahead and do so."
