For something like a shopping cart, it seems like DI (and maybe AOP) might be pretty cool, but it is a different way of doing things, so to speak, and different can be hard to do. FWIW, I think dependency / package management will be important areas in the future, as more and more cool stuff emerges, but that's really besides the point. It's going to be hard to have a really good, *and* really simple cart, basically. :-/ :Den -- Good writers are of necessity rare.
