The .NET platform is getting ever better and all the tools you need to get started are free (.NET framework, Visual C# Express Edition, SQL Server Express). Cons: Not cross-platform in any meaningful way yet. Some experience rejection at a molecular level when it comes to Microsoft. Me, I use whatever my customer base dictates, and it dictates Windows. Yes, I could use Java or Python or whatever on Windows, but you make big sacrifices there in terms of a quality GUI as far as I can see, and there is nothing approaching the RAD capability of Visual Studio yet. -- Alan Bourke [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
