Windows apps are just a very small piece. I don't see any threat to ASP.NET, Entity Framework, WCF, Windows Identity Foundation etc. Microsoft always release many forms of programming. For example we exposed Azure through REST, we follow WS TRUST. Even .NET had options of many languages right from very start. Has that ever been a threat to .NET? Never! When talking about design and architecture, I see that through this Microsoft has only added a new capability to UI layer, none of the other layers will be affected. If a person has to develop a UI meant for standards he anyway have to chose HTML 5 and Javascript, if he wants to do something extra to Macintosh he has to chose SL (not Javascript) if he has to develop for Windows 8 he now has MANY options and if someone chooses HTML + Javascript that would be either because he wanted that to be standards based OR he is good at that. For sure WPF and WinForms will now be an ioption that one would use only if he wants to use existing rich UI controls. I would never imagine a person to access Windows 8 platform capabilities through Javascript because he cannot anyways use that JS code anywhere else. It would only be because that developer is comfortable with JS. Everyone else would still choose C#. XAML vs HTML is a race now and windows 8 has got nothing to do with it. If Microsoft can continue to keep SL ahead of HTML standards, people will chose SL for sure if they are not looking for absolute interoperability.

If MS is going to make inroads in that direction, it needs to ditch .Net and adopt a 'write once/run anywhere' development platform. Although the .Net framework was in theory designed to be platform-agnostic, it never really turned out that way. I never liked .Net anyway, even if I have been using it for ten years. It has a bloated object model that minimises any offsetting gains in application development efficiency, because it takes a long time to become familiarised with the model. HTML5 used in conjunction with JavaScript libraries like JQuery don't present the same learning curve. Also, the .Net postback and viewstate were corruptions of the W3C standard for HTTP, which is supposed to be a stateless protocol. Hopefully, the end of .Net will return HTTP to its original intents. I won't be weeping any tears for .Net. Microsoft’s adoption of HTML5 and JavaScript is a necessary step into the future, because that’s what is (or will be) running on most mobile devices.

The issue is - the image opens up in a 840x600 size (which is small). My laptop can support a max of 1280x800. I tried the above suggestion of editing the xorg.conf file, made the necessary changes (as root user) and restarted the image, but there is no change in the image size. The problem i am seeing is - even after changing the modes in teh xorg.conf file, the "SCREEN RESOLUTION" option in the RHEL "Preferences" setting does not show the new values that we have entered in the xorg.conf file. Unless, i see the new values, I cannot change the resolution. Please help me as I have spent close to a day without any success. Thanks, Vineet I have a RHEL5 image running on my laptop (Win XP).
