OT: Silverlight - Comments?

[viktoras didziulis]

for me it seems more like enhancement of browser-side scripting 
capabilities. Formerly MS Explorer was limited with jscript and 
VBscript. With silverlight one can use Javascript (well, now they call 
it AJAX...), Python, Ruby, whatever else for client-side scripting. I 
remember Netscape allowed scripting in both Javascript and Perl 
(perlscript) already in the second half of the XXth century ;-).
