I agree with them. I use, or have used, most of the popular languages (PHP, PERL, C++, Java, Python, etc) and find it to be the best for web and windows applications.

The
MONO PROJECT is a free and open source project who purpose is only to allow developers to be able to run Microsoft .NET applications cross-platform, but also to bring better development tools to Linux developers.
Mono can be run on many software systems including Android (and most other Linux distributions), BSD, iOS, OS X, Windows, Solaris, and some for game consoles such as PlayStation 3, Wii, and Xbox 360.
The Mono team actually has a BUILDING provided for them by Microsoft near their HQ.

I dunno; there are somethings that are just a bear* to work with -- granted, I'm saying this as a programmer who has to maintain/develop for a program that was put together by a kid in an internship position (likely unfamiliar w/ the C# and the .NET framework) that from all accounts was a (more or less) transliteration of an Access DB somebody had put together.
