Then you got the wrong vibe. A customer recently asked me about creating a new app in Silverlight. My advice was to go with a web-based HTML 5 app because it will work on the iPad. Silverlight will never run there.

My point was that in the enterprise business world, Windows is still king and I don't see that changing in the near future.

>I am not being an Apple fanboy, as I was memorably called here a few months ago. It's just that the wild success of the iPad speaks for itself. This includes the business world. We should think about how we can use this enthusiasm to our advantage instead of arguing that it shouldn't exist. The train already left the station.
