>>Now the rest of the story -- MSFT Consulting built the app. For free.<<

Well, if that's true it just shows that MS is really committed to dotNET.

I think many of us are concluding that whether it be Sun, MS, Oracle, one of the dotBombs or whoever trumpeting about speed or fantastic business benefits, we need to ask them to "tell us again in 6 months" so we can tell the difference between the hype and what happened when it met the real world.

"... 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.
