Why microsoft products ?
After nearly half a decade of working on Microsoft platform i have just switched to a non microsoft software for data integration, the product is considered to be a leader in the segment but in the past couple of weeks have just realized why the development cost are so low in the MS platform.
1) There are enough news groups about the product im working on
2) the site of the company looks more like someones hobby site ( content !!!..where is it ??!)
3) The application doesnt have an intuitive look and feel and things dont come naturally to the user as a MS product.
4) the messages/ prompts were written by some guy who doesnt know the grammer of the english language !! i didnt know if i should click on Yes/No !!!
5) Google results are very poor for the product.

Been working on .NET since Beta 1 but even then i had more documentation then.... hmm.. im begining to see the light ....
