Re: You GOT to be kidding me!!

"However, that XAML can then have scripts added to it either in a compiled language (such as C#) or a script language such as JScript. One XAML file can contain a complete application written in VBScript and XAML: both very, very easy (if somewhat verbose and slow) languages. Comparing it to C++ is very stretched, and not accurate - XAML allows you to /fully/ separate design from the code driving it (a place that Qt Designer is rapidly approaching, as opposed to the 95% separation we have now), which means developers can be beavering away in Visual Studio with their C# whilst the designers are pointing and clicking to make the GUI look nice."

Yes I did know that, and it is still rather pointless. It may be of use to Windows developers, but not to others - that was the point of the article.

"Honestly: did you really think MS made a technology that did nothing but display a fancy GUI?"

Yes, and they have.
