since both rely on the API, I can't imagine why.

yeah? I can make a button on a form ten times as fast as you can (this
includes the form, of course). it took me 2.9 seconds to have a one-form,
one-button app up and running, from I started moving the mouse 'til the app
had stopped loading. you will have to do it in less than 30 seconds to
prove me wrong. :)

since MS decides what is the de facto standard, I guess not.
