Well, $company has written a stock exchange in C#.  Recently they passed 
the 50,000,000 shares traded per-day benchmark.  So I guess that counts 
as useful :-)  Of course I think they're somewhat crazy to build such a 
critical infrastructure on a proprietary platform, but I guess it's 
working for them so far.
