Microsoft Silverlight

Don't know how this got installed on my 'puter, but I've been suffering with blue screens, slow software, freezes, etc. for the last 2 or 3 weeks.

This morning I couldn't even boot in safe mode. After about 15 hard restarts, I finally got Windoze to open and deleted the Silverlight program.

So far so good, and Bill Gates ought to be shot for turning loose crap like this.

I guess you just don't need a powerful development platform for creating rich media applications and business applications for the Web, desktop, and mobile devices.

It really is powerful technology that offers compelling experiences.

Compelling?

The only thing it's compelling me to do it put a 125 gr. JHP through the monitor.

I know, I'd just be shooting the messenger.
