What? Damnit, I spent all that money training my staff to use Silverlight 1, all for nothing.
I'll have to fire them all now and start over.

I hope the eating disorder was worth it. :afrog:
Silverlight is like soup. It's soupy.
wossname has a staff.
I picture him herding sheep.
It isn't pretty.
What's the point of Silverlight again? Does it even have cross-browser capabilities? :confused:
Just replace them with cheap contractors. I'm sure you will find some that already have 5+ years "experience" using SL2.
Practically instantly after they announced Silverlight 1 they talked about 2 stating it would have deeper CLR integration with expanded abilities to use .Net languages. This is your own fault you damn cat.Quote:

Shut it, goon.
So, what does silverlight actually do that you can't do already?
All it seems like is an Adobe clone - basically a sandbox for web applications to play in? If not, what makes it especially better than Adobe?
Threading?
You can use your existing knowledge of .NET languages to create Silverlight apps, as opposed to having to learn ActionScript.
ActionScript sucks anyway. It's like a cross between Java and JavaScript.
Couldn't they find a way to incorporate VBA?
.... I hate you...Quote:
