I'm doing .NET since 2002 (web stuff) and although it really improved along the years, I always had this feeling of MS not doing the right thing. GC is not the only thing, there are several other issues: 1. Controls not rendering proper standards html > have to rely on CSS Friendly Adapters > overloads my web app 2.

Should I use: Linq, traditional ADO.Net, Enterprise Library? 4. Visual Studio is a great tool, but Bloated :-( I did an overall study of Ruby on Rails and now I'm studying Ruby language to really grasp RoR ... sorry MS, but I decided to move on :-( ps. without all the MS tools in my PC and just [Ruby, RoR and MySql] my PC is running just wild :-) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
