Just to take this further afield, has anyone explored the possibility of running mono in PASE (I think this would be the shortest path to getting .NET running on the I)?

Before I get flamed, I'm not advocating this development, just curious to see if someone has done it.

To me, this is an awfully hard one for .Net to trump. And for this list
in particular (midrange tech) it's pretty much unbeatable, since .Net
doesn't run on i.

There are other issues, but most of them come down to preferences.
