.NET is neither language, nor platform. Microsoft call it "framework"; simple question is: .NET is just a a huge set of libraries (DLLs)

The .NET "framework" of libraries (DLLs) created by Microsoft is a software development "platform" focused on rapid application development, platform independence and network transparency. .NET is Microsoft's strategic initiative for server and desktop development for the next decade.

It consists of three main parts: the Common Language Runtime, the Framework classes, and ASP.NET. GotDotNet. For more info, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_.Net
