Typingcat,
I'd heard and believed that Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
would be shipped with Windows Vista(Longhorn).
Recently, I heard that it will NOT shipped with Windows Vista.
Is it true?
As Windows Vista isn't here today, I guess nobody can say for sure. However,
my opinion is that *some* version of .NET framework will absolutely ship
with Vista. Whether it is 1.1, 2.0 or even 2.1, I cannot say -- it could
even be a combination of versions.
Today, Windows Server 2003 is the only operating system version that comes
with .NET 1.1 pre-installed. However, many PCs today have it because of
Windows Update. Since .NET is indeed important to Microsoft and they have
constantly said that future Windows version will have it pre-installed, I
cannot see any reason why they wouldn't include a .NET version in Vista as
well.
