So is Microsoft trying to steal more Mac users? Has their XAML format borrowed heavily from Mozilla's XUL?

I don't know, but I was definitely not impressed by this preview. I mean, apart from the fact that the presentation was downright aweful (this is microsoft???) the whole xml kind of programming just does not appeal to me.

If they want to keep up with the rest, they probably will. Question is, is Pascal/Delphi going to be part of it?

Damnit!! I watched for 10 mins without sound thinking it would be a sneak peak of a 3D version of Siege of Avalon... only to find some boring guy demonstrating a dodgey XML 3D thingy...

Savage, You're a cruel man :D
