  1. .NET is here to stay on .Net Programmers Fall in CNN's Top 5 In-Demand · · Score: 1

    I just got hired at a big financial institution for an one year internship between the second and third year of my CompSci degree, not because I had good grades, or because I had good recommendations or theoretical knowleadge, but I believe it was primariliy becuase I can develop in .NET (C# and VB.NET) and have experience in using it in real world situations.

    Like it or not, a lot of big companies are using .NET now, ignore and ridicule it at your own expense.

    Actually, using a decent component cable will give you 1080p resolution, and if you use high quality component cables, it'll probably be better quality then a cheapo HDMI/DVI cable. I've had troubles getting my Pioneer 435 to work with PCs, but best solution is to just use good quality analogue and tweak the settings.

    Thats a bit harsh though even if it does eat a fair wack of memory its still a good program and a better alternative than IE
    Very true, but I did open a few too many tabs the other day (about 20) and it was using well over 100MB of memory, even after I closed all but two of them and went on browsing with just a few tabs open. To me, Opera just seems far more responsive, but there are a few quirks you have to get used to. It's the same with switching from any browser to another.
