Also, nobody has mentioned this yet but.. There's simply nothing like VS.Net 2003 / ASP.Net for developing business applications. Intellisense, remote debugging, etc.
I've used MonoDevelop and Eclipse, and they just aren't there yet. This is one area that I definitely will consider contributing to because of my .Net experience.

I would like to see an open source Timeslips while we are at it. :) Hmm, here is the kind of software I need to do business every day: * Timeslips * QB * ACT! * Email/OE * Firefox * VMware That's about it. There is nothing comparable to Timeslips, QB, or ACT! at this point, although people are trying. Maybe in two years we will see some real movement on that front. I am glad to see that companies like Novell, IBM, and Oracle are moving as fast as they are. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Harney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 10, 2005 4:32 PM Subject: Re: [brlug-general] linux ready for the business desktop? > Baudouin, Andrew wrote: >> Does GnuCash support transaction downloads yet? > > You mean from banking sites?
