Beat that mono.

I thought mono's intention was to allow .NET applications to run and be developed on Linux, not extend the features or compete with .NET...They try to implement the .NET framework on a different platform (MS having made their own product for MacOSX and Linux) so yes, they are competing. It would be interesting to see them keep up with .NET. Meaning they'd need to implement WinFX in it's entirety which includes WPF. I don't see that happening anytime soon, sorry.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests
You might be right about that, Joe.

I didn't know there was a MS product for .NET on Linux, could you link me?

Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_Source_Common_Language_InfrastructureThe Shared Source Common Language Infrastructure (SSCLI), previously codenamed Rotor, is Microsoft's shared source implementation of the CLI, the core of .NET.
There is no Microsoft product on Linux. Microsoft produces for Win32 / Win64 alone.There is an implementation of a Microsoft product on Linux. Microsoft did not write this implementation.

Microsoft provided the necessary technology/information for a mono like application to exist on other platforms, it does not appear that it exists for any other purpose. Mono implementing this wouldn't be competing with MS since there is no actual MS product (as Newby said), just MS rescources.
2. It also says the most current version is not supported on anything other than XP sp2 which would also suggest that Mono is in fact filling a void instead of just being competitionIf it seems I'm being overly defensive of Mono.....well I am

Mono was not written by Microsoft. It's based on the Common Language Infrastructure (http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-335.htm).
