it&#x27;s worth also asking:<p>How much does licensing a set of Windows keys run?<p>How does the .NET GC impact me versus Swift&#x27;s ARC?<p>How much RAM does Visual Studio eat up after you&#x27;ve been coding for a while?<p>How slow, unresponsive or buggy is it these days?<p>of course there&#x27;s &quot;ecosystem creep&quot;... If I&#x27;m going C# on mobile, I&#x27;ll naturally be influenced to consider C# on the server... how much do Windows servers cost?  and since they&#x27;re a &quot;first class citizen&quot; on windows, what about SQL Server?
