    VB is a shit programming language. Now MS pushing another marketing bullshit.

    I am quiet happy using the Sun development kit and tools like JBuilder on NT5 or Linux.

    Look around noone gives a shit about .NET and everyone just using Java, so cut the crap and fuck off you MS salesman.

    the Anglo-Saxon clubs and White American societies, as far as the Negro is concerned, as better friends of the race than all other groups of hypocritical whites put together. I like honesty and fair play. You may call me a Klansman if you will, but, potentially, every white man is a Klansman, as far as the Negro in competition with whites socially, economically and politically is concerned, and there is no use lying about.

  5. Migration _is_ an important issue by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Lindqvist.com has an interesting article about this side of the story. They're elaborating how Micro$oft successfully snatched market share by providing migration tool towards its own product, but making it difficult (or unreliable) to migrate away from their software. Definately worth a read!

    In short .NET is a brand new way to spread VB script virus. They have even convinced a couple of Open Source projects to develope for .NET so now even Linux users can now enjoy the next Melissa/LoveBug virus to go around.

    Oh dear. Read his post again. Perl is JUST A LANGUAGE - you can write Perl components for .Net. Linux has NOTHING like .Net, and the OS community is busy playing catchup to the true innovator in the field, Microsoft.

    This is funny. Of course the moderators didn't get the joke. Its a reference to Steve Ballmer running around a stage, sweating like hog, screaming at the top of his lungs "Developers, Developers, Developers".

    No matter what tools come on the scene...

    That's fine, don't give them up. But .NET does provide some integration and improvements on all the tools you've been using. For one, C# is an easy language to program in and with the right JIT/processor match it can be as fast or faster than C/C++ compiled for non .NET platforms. It buys you a few other things as well like reference counting/garbage collection. MS provides a .NET C/C++ compiler if you want that. Nearly any other language with the right type structure can be compiled to the .NET VM, including one day Perl.

    Database support is built into .NET. XML and HTTP support are built into .NET. HTML support is not, but you don't need to be writing code to sling HTML... ASPX does it for you very nicely. Ever write a Windows app and then with a few changes to the code have a equivalent HTML-based app?

    There's nothing that says you need .NET tools. You can keep doing what you're doing and be happy. But .NET is really set up to integrate alot of the things you do into a tighter package... 1-stop development if you will. If you want to have an easier time integrating the components you mention, you might consider .NET as an option.
