Come on, we're not talking about the homefront here, we're talking about the frontier. This is the startup news site; we're not here to talk about the current industry standard.

Well, the first part of my comment was a joke, and the second part was only asserting that Microsoft wasn't going to go away soon, because they're a de facto standard.

I'm not saying that I worry about them for my own projects, or that you should for yours. :)

My apologies. I didn't get that "more seriously" indicated that the first part was completely tongue-in-cheek.

Oh, no problem. I thought that more people would notice that it's lifted directly from the article. On the other hand, I guess it's quite possible that it isn't funny. :)
