When you've built you buisness by doing building totally proprietary
non-portable solutions and somehow managed to create and enormous market
presence, It easy to develop grandios notion Of things like "we are the
only one that counts therefor any thing we do becomes becomes the standard.
I'm sure that from their point of view developing a laguage product that
might make it easier to swtich to a non-standard(Microsoft Persective) OS
like UNIX does not fit in with their well establish corporate culture of arrogance.
