It is intended for developers and designers interested in learning more about how to build experiences with Microsoft Silverlight.

This thing is actually pretty good. It uses less CPU than Adobe Flash.

I'm not competent to say - it's a type of flash player, from what I understand... ...but I use IE , Media Player, etc so rarely that I'm not sure I could tell the difference between Silverlight and Adobe Flash... ...so it seems to work fine, but would take more experience than I have to effectively evaluate it's performance.

I don't know any yet because I can't use it. I run Windows XP and this thing won't finish installing after it has been loaded once and crashed. Headaches for me. I used to be a computer professional a few years ago so I know most of the tricks to installing and removing software. No joy here. Don't try it unless you need it. Then good luck. Not to be loaded if you are curious about it. Make sure you want this - it might be a lot of work for nothing. I still reserve a little room to be wrong - but not much room.

Works well, better than earlier versions that had trouble updating. Earlier versions had trouble updating.

there are no pros I am unable to get Silverlight to work with XP SP3. Uninstall/reinstall doesn't work, uninstall/reinstall IE 8 doesn't work. I'm out of ideas.
