How widespread is the .NET framework?

johtib

Does anyone have any figures on how many people have the .NET framework installed. Is it wise to develop games/applications using the .NET framework if targeting home users (i.e. not IT professionals)? The reason I'm asking is of course that many users might be reluctant to install the thing just to run the game/application I've developed. P.S. Does the .NET framework ship with the upcomming Windows XP SP2? Thanks, Johan Tibell

.NET doesn't ship with Windows XP but ships with Windows Server 2003. I don't think too many home users (not the Web users b/c you may be accessing ASP.NET web sites) are using .NET today. Only .NET users are IT people.
