Don't you think it's a kind of off-topic? this is more of a question to the authors...

MS Chart control can be used in .NET 3.5 also. Microsoft Chart Controls for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5[^]
Before this chart control you had to use a 3rd party component like ComponentOne, Telerik, DevExpress etc.
You can build charts manually using either javascript, flash, imaging etc, but I don't see the point reinventing the wheel. It's a lot of good components out there and the MS chart control will covor most basic needs :)
