You are not smarter than Microsoft

No matter how much you want to think it, you are not smarter than Microsoft.  Do not think that you can create a better version of ASP, ASP.NET, VB, C#, Office, or whatever over a weekend.  If you work for Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, or another tech company, than yes, you can do your own thing.  If you don't work for a tech company, than don't think that you can compete with them without millions, and possibly billions, of dollars.
