    Firebird is an excelent choice for an Access killer. Just needs a nice graphical frontend for final users on it.

    And what makes you think you can port any VB projects. Let me blow your dream (I love this part :-).
    From the FAQ:

    Is Gambas compatible with Visual Basic?

    No, and it will never be!

    Fortunately, there are many similarities, but do not expect to take your old Visual Basic code and run it on Gambas without any change.

    You can go the troubleshooting page to find some examples of the differences between the two languages.

    I wonder what would be in your sig if Bin Laden just says he endorses Bush.

    While I really like the theory aspect of Computer Science, I prefered to learn the theory through heavy amounts of programming.

    Theory is theory and practice is practice. In my university we were almost never teached any real language and when we were it was only a few lessons, exceptions were pseudocode and some assembler (for an invented architecture and x86). It was up to you to catch up on the particular language needed in each class to do the assignments. I think that helps to catch new languages more easily.

    You are twice wrong. You are wrong in your proposition then you are wrong in supposing you are just probably wrong.

    LAMP sounds LAME to me. I prefer to have the posibility of changing one of the tiers. For example I can deploy on Windows or Solaris or whatever instead of Linux. After all there is Apache, MySql and PHP for most platforms. May be I want other web server. But it seems that PHP and MySql have some mutual atraction (API) that becomes difficult to change the database.
    Plus MySQL isn't free and Postgresql is :-)
