While this is indeed the most measurable decision you can make, it is hardly the most important. I have seen teams argue for months on platform choice. At the same time, they spend zero seconds arguing on the importance of testing, hiring experts, agile process, or the other important issues.
Must be something about the visibility of the platform choice (look he is using Visual Studio!) vs. the non-visibility of the important stuff.
Cannot remember the name of the famous consultant, who has been on many a project, and was asked: what is the most productive platform? His answer: it makes no difference, as long as the team gells arount it, and has a passion for it.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
