It's essential a run-time library for the increasing number of
applications that use it's features. If you use XP or Vista you will
need .NET eventually. It does no harm.

.NET is the stupidist crap MS has come up with. It clogs your system with
unwanted files that cannot be moved. It compiles the application before
running it. This increases the load time on first use. It has to do this
again when you update the software, or any time it feels like it. The code
is bloated and slow, and probably full of bugs. I don't need to waste my
time finding out where they are.

Anyone who writes software in .NET is demonstrating their amateur status
and corresponding incompetence. I don't need to waste my time with code
written by amateurs, and .NET clearly shows who they are.

Whenever I'm looking for applications, I disregard any application written
in .NET, and continue looking for code written by professionals.

One of the authors in the LTspice forum generated a MOSFET model program
using .NET. He recently changed it to a stand-alone exe. This shows .NET
is
not needed, and how easy it is to get rid of it.

If you compile a DLL in the latest Visual Studio tools, you need to have
..Net loaded on the target machine. Better dll handeling.
