 		 #169270 - Windows not (necessarily) required
Responding to: ???'s previous message

C# is not just another language. It is part of Microsoft's dot Net. It is more akin to Java.

That sounds pretty fair.

Since it requires Windows (or Mono) It is not running on anything that does not run Windows or Linux.

No, that is not true!

C# can be used with the dot Net micro Framework - which, as previously noted, is available on some quite "modest" non-Windows platforms:

If this project requires a small micro it's ASM or C for Most 8 bitters. Add C++ for 16 bits up.

That depends, of course, on what you mean by "small"!
If you count an NXP LPC2388 (ARM7) as "small", then you can have C# on it: http://www.ghielectronics.com/products
