#2Funny. For a second I thought this was a public shaming campaign targeting hacker-news members that still work with "evil tools".

#3I've never, ever, understood these things. In what way am I helped as a developer by looking at a picture with some high-level namespaces?

It wouldn't help at all, but it might give the impression that you are a "profeshniol" to clueless IT manager types.

I've always likened these posters to the legal books kept on law office bookshelves. It's 2010 and I'm not sure I want to set foot in the office of a lawyer billing $200+/hr if they're seriously still sifting through tomes.
I know what I'm talking about...you see all this wood pulp at my disposal?

#6I'd like to be clever enough to emulate Cato the Elder, and come up with a short motto I could add to comments on all articles .NET related which encapsulates the following:
MicroSoft, good work with the .NET Framework, C#, F#, and LINQ, but if you want to keep Windows relevant, make all editions of Visual Studio free and open sourced. That includes the Professional, Tester, and Architect versions. It's not enough to offer "Express".
So maybe my motto should be "Open source Visual Studio!". (I sure hope I don't get down-voted or banned if I start doing this.)

#7I wish I had printed versions of those for my office. They might not be useful for day to day development, but it serves as a warning (of my nerdiness) to others when they visit.

As a non-native speaker of English I thought "poster" could also be a persons who posts (for example links to a news site). Therefore, I misconceived the meaning of the headline as stated above since it appeared in the context of hacker news. Also: it was just a joke.

I get tonnes done with my evil tools.

Why does the editor have to be open source? I think you might have an argument if you wanted .NET and other proprietary software related to development open sourced and available on all platforms but an IDE is not something that needs to be open source (though extensibility is always good).
