Er, dude, it was a marketing manager from Microsoft, what did you expect them to say, "oh, lawl, linux is bettar than us!!!" ?

I'm sure the people on the .NET team - you know, the actual people that do stuff - who work with the Mono gang *really* appreciate your message.

Please don't let Microsoft discourage you. I develop in a primarily Windows environment, and a Win32 mod_mono would help me test for cross-platform compatibility. And even if I couldn't run under linux, I could at least use apache instead of iis...
