I would agree with the Greg. I reckon that we are a bit tired to see the same stuff last 10 years - there is nothing revolutionary new.
Everything evolves in cycles with 10 years period J Looking back to 1994-96 I remember the same feeling and discussion when VS 6 been released - nothing new, the same VS 5.0 with the features, and people wanted something new, revolutionary, to change the paradigm significantly. And that's what happened when MS announced .NET in year 2000 and WPF in 2002, but it's slowing down now again. MS only extends the functionality of the baseline they set in those years. So I personally don't see why we should be excited (except the Windows Phone 7 and Silverlight) J and I awaiting the next big step from MS From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Stephen Price Sent: Friday, 19 March 2010 4:53 PM To: ozDotNet Subject: Developer apathy... I've come across something that perplexes me today... Just curious if others have hit it. I asked about the office when we'd be starting to use Visual Studio 2010, and if anyone was excited about it and all I got back was that people don't care. What the...??? Are people really so apathetic that they don't care? Or maybe they've just been developing longer than me and are burnt/jaded? For me this is like upgrading your ten year old car to a brand new Porsche. Maybe I just love shiny new toys or something? S.
