Windows Presentation Foundation has some serious issues

All is not well in Microsoft's attempt to improve the Windows user experience for Vista, Windows 7 and subsequent releases.
I still don't have Silverlight installed on my home PC (No! It can't be so!) - I need to use it for collaborative work with Microsoft on my computers at the office, but I can't say it enriches my experience as a user.

If I was a .NET developer, dependent on MS for new SDKs and APIs, I'm not sure I'd be too happy to read this, but InfoQ are going around and saying it has some serious problems, the biggest hitter probably being the fact that it memory leaks like a big bucket full of memory with a massive hole in the bottom.

Other members of the blog-o-sphere spotted this issue before, so I'm not sure why it took so long for the InfoQ guys to sniff it out. The point is that they eventually did, and they even identified some major areas where it was leaking.
