正如大家所知道的，Silverlight1.0到目前的1.1是不支援3D的，而Adobe的FLASH10已經聲明直接支援3D，而Silverlight号稱Flash“終結者”竟然在1.1沒有支援，同時在Silverlight2.0的特性中也沒有3D這塊……，唯一可以解釋的是：這是微軟的一種商業戰略—“後來者居上”，雖然Silverlight目前不直接支援3D，但已經有名為“Balder”的開源項目，在CodePlex.com上可以下載下傳，同時是Opensource的項目，這給Silverlight 3D方面帶來了希望!

Project Description
A 3D game engine for Silverlight and possibly other .net based technologies.
The name Balder comes from Norse Mythology. Balder is the modern Norwegian, Swedish and Danish form. He is also known as Baldr or Baldur (icelandic). Balder is the god of innocence.
The second son of Odin is Baldr, and good things are to be said of him. He is best, and all praise him; he is so fair of feature, and so bright, that light shines from him. A certain herb is so white that it is likened to Baldr's brow; of all grasses it is whitest, and by it thou mayest judge his fairness, both in hair and in body. He is the wisest of the Æsir, and the fairest-spoken and most gracious; and that quality attends him, that none may gainsay his judgments. He dwells in the place called Breidablik, which is in heaven; in that place may nothing unclean be[.] - Brodeur's translation
