Simple, you don't want to hire those people anyway. "could probably" means they've zero experience of it but assume it must be easy because... PHP is easy?

People with skills recognize that the .NET platform is state-of-the-art, and know that with the magic word BizSpark the Windows platform costs basically nothing.

PS some advice for free: don't refer to people as "resources".

Thanks gaius for your words,

Yeah, the 'could probably' responses are the ones I watch out for...

RE: the post, .NET PEOPLE, and resources to find those people.

BizSpark is a great program (we're a part of it) but still young. I don't think BizSpark alone is incentive for a young adult developer to start learning .net (therefore depleting the # of .net people in the future).

thoughts?
