I'm not an expert on Mono but I did see Miguel's presentation in Z�rich a month or so ago. From that presentation and what I have read online, I would feel confident planning to have WinForms basically useable in 2 years. However, your question seems (to me anyway) to be mixing three dissimilar items together. There is 1) the .NET Framework 2) C# 3) WinForms You could leverage 1 & 2 on both platforms and then decide how to best tackle the C/S GUI. WinForms is probably your best choice but you also have GTK#, which is available today. Miguel's MONO presentation in Z�rich featured a seemingly complete GUI .NET application for image browsing written using some form of GTK. The presentation is available online but I can't remember where. Someone else on this list could reference it. Search in the archives for Z�rich. Hopefully you'll get more knowledgeable feedback. -Art -- Art Wallace [EMAIL PROTECTED] +41 41 361 23 18 _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
