#1: C-sharp is a Microsoft invention and product, and using it
automatically means you are helping Microsoft.

#2: Mono is a trojan horse that will kill or wound Linux in future.
Why? Because Microsoft has patents on parts of it, something de Icaza

Believe me, Bill Gates and Ballmer are laughing at all the fools who
want mono to contaminate Linux, because they know they can pull the
plug on it anytime in future when and if it suits them (and this time,
there is no IBM angel to help out like the SCO problem - IBM is firmly
a Java vendor)
