Chest-puffing is when I loudly exclaim that I'M RIGHT AND YOU SUCK. The core of the article is explaining what my talk is about.
It's not a debate. The point is to ask Microsoft to stop being afraid.
Afraid of what? What is you want them to do?

It would really help if you watched the video. As I've been saying, this post is in support of the video. I spent 45 minutes laying out all the details.
If you don't want to - that's great but you're comments have no context.

That's awesome; I'd love to watch the video. The 4 or 5 times I tried yesterday (in two different browsers), I got nothing. Just waiting on host.
I guessed that the post supported the video, but lacking a video, commented on the post instead.
The way I've viewed it is WebForms is what you learn when you're starting out, and when you want more advanced features that are built for websites people actually use, you use something more sane, like MVC.
In my experience, "vanilla" Asp.NET (with WebForms) makes a ton of assumptions on how it should be styled, based on...I'm not really sure. The Visual Studio project team's intranet or something. MVC is slightly better with CSS adapters and the like, and provides a more robust routing mechanism that we've used on a few sites.
Why is this a debate, other than being more platform religion?
