Edit Question
Title
Body
I like LINQ to SQL, but it seems like the classes it generates are tightly coupled to the database they are stored in, which seems like a Bad Thing. For example, using ye olde Northwind database, if I create the dbml with the Products table, a Product class is generated. I can use this class in any other tier, which is all well and good, but if I decide I'd rather use plain old ADO.NET (or switch databases), I'll have to recreate the Product class, along with every other "model." Is there a way around this? Or to create your object models separately, and then have the tables mapped to them? I've played around with the various mapping classes provided, but haven't found a satisfactory answer yet.
