You'll find a hard time avoiding .NET runtimes in the future, I'm sure =) You may even end up like a friend of mine who still to this date fights for his rights to use a keyboard without the microsoft / windows keys =)
Also, another idea may be to wait and see if N'JABE actually reaches a release stage before deciding which one to go for =)
