Gentleman, Prepare to Click-Once!

In Rob's summary of the story thus far, he further "refines" the criteria for our bet to include that the application be installed via Click-Once.  While this may be a tough criteria to meet given the current FUD about installing the .NET Framework, I'll take that challenge.  Okay Rob, you're on!  Who's with me?!?!

My list of smart clients did miss your earlier point, while compiling it my thinking was to actually see just how far I could stretch the definition of "smart client".  I may have strained it once or twice, but I think overall it still fits all of those items if not your specific criteria for the bet.  And don't be too quick to rule out media as a smart client.  While Media Center may be a stretch, I would add Rhapsody to the list as an excellent smart client for music and video. 

Much like the "Space Race" from the 60s, the end result of this bet will be of less overall consequence than the knowledge and experience that comes simply from having tried.
