<i>I don't understand what do you mean by your "generics might be good for most occasions but they cannot do math"</i></br>

<i>See? WinForms are gone, WPF is gone, but the language under the UI may still be C#.</i></br>
On the other hand are gone VB6, IronRuby,IronPython,Mono?,Silverlight?,while COM+ is resurected from the dead!History has a habit of repeating itself.And there is a strong push towards C++ as a mainstream language for the win platform
