Currently most of software tools and programming models were developed with Perl or Java under the Unix system. Millions of Windows programmers are blocked from accessing these programming objects. Do they need to learn Unix and Perl? Many biologist are familiar with the easy-to-use Windows system. Can they spend less time learning Windows solutions? I am exploring the power of the Windows platform and the modern, elegant language C# (a cross platform .Net solution development language) and using them to develop a proper hierarchical object model and analysis tools.

cross platform?

C# is cross platform? I thought C# was .NET
specific, which means it will run in any OS
that Microsoft sells.
Its only a beta-test compiler, but the compiled
C# code I've seen takes up a large memory footprint when compared to the gnu gcc or g++.
So far, C# has all the bloat and overhead of Java
and none of the platform independence.
