Write .NET Code? There's a Big Prize For That.

I’m not hating (I’m a .Net developer) but I don’t see the point of this. Even the worst of .Net haters wouldn’t claim you CAN’T do cool things with MS technology. They’d just say it’s harder and more expensive than doing it with Open Source :)<p>I wish MS would put some money into contests the would improve what’s available to the community like "best open sourced component" or "best video tutorial"

its to bad the project i'm most proud of is owned by my old company, and i don't have the rights to give them a demo.
