Hi Pekr,
Six month ago it was a forgone conclusion that the company I work for would
be modifying code to be dotNet compatible. Now we don't see ourselves ever
leaving VB6. Recently, I met a local programmer that bought Delphi a few
years back like I did and we're going to get together with a few others in a
study group. Delphi is technically a better product, but they could learn
some ease of use issues from M$.
I attended a dotNet seminar in Seattle a while back where they all seemed
spooked by Java more than anything else, but what got my attention was that
dotNet consists of about 6500 new objects. There's something wrong here.
I expect this storm has only begun to brew.
Ken.
I don't ask for much... I just want conceptually simple and powerfully
capable.
