datatypes and structures, and many of its sub-namespace for non-core
services). This makes the Windows API difficult to use if you don't want
.Net (for example when you just want to program in C or C++)

These and his other remarks about Net are on the way to becoming rather out
of date, since Net 2003 is not supported in Vista.
See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/vstudio/aa948853.aspx : "The changes
impact Visual Studio and thus we're unable to support Visual Studio .NET
2002 or Visual Studio .NET 2003 on Windows Vista."
It is not clear to me how much this impacts on the problems discussed by
Philippe.
