Thats true, but it isn't so much the baggage, as it is that you can't distribute a program written in C# unless your users have the .Net runtime installed, which is a pretty fucking big download.
It is 2010, and it still doesn't have a linker (this wouldn't have mattered so much if the programs where still distributed on a CD, but it sucks when you have to download that much).
