I had to response to my soon-to-be-former boss' post about how an architect packs when moving offices.

A Silverlight guy could pack today with some great looking boxes that work with all major moving trucks, but they won't really hold all of his stuff.  They're kind of like those XAML boxes, but with huge gaps.  He feels the need to defend his box choice when compared with the competitor's boxes, which have been in production for years and total market penetration.

The Silverlight guy would rather wait another month or so, for the 2.0 beta of the box.  This version will solve all of his packing needs, can be loaded 1000 times faster than other common boxes and comes with a license allowing it to be used immediately.  The 2.0 boxes will also feature data cateloguing, content memory, multiple languages and can be used to build even better composite boxes.  So the Silverlight guy will probably wait until after the big conference when the new box is supposed to be announced.
