Aaahhh, yes...I had a "Commie 64" in the mid-80s which I used to teach myself BASIC (remember the cassette I/O?). But the Amiga 2000! Video Toaster or Death!!! And I, too, had (still have!) a copy of K&R as my C bible.... Those were happy days...college, beer, cracking, phreaking, no ANI or digital switches, err....never mind....

Laughing at the poor MAC+ users I knew with their clunky one button mice and tiny black & white displays. (If I recall rightly the multitasking in the MacOS back then wasnt even preemtive?) Ah the good ol Amiga. A far more worthy home for the Motorola 68000... Keep the faith! Amiga shall return! Wonder if it will be back in time to run Struts1.1 final? hehe -----Original Message----- From: Galbreath, Mark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 19:43 .NET is a framework, not a programming language, and you can use Java to develop within it (albeit JDK 1.1 at this time). In fact, it will not be long before you can use any language to develop within it, and look for a Linux version in the near future. <dating-myself>I taught myself C on a Mac Plus (which I personally upgraded from a "Fat Mac") using Symantec's Think C 5.0</dating-myself>, but I've lost touch with Apple technology over the years (though I've bought my kids IMacs and I still have a MacIIsi and Centris 610), but I'm sure it's worth investigating.

I was wondering if anyone had come across them in their travels. Their WYSIWYG approach is attractive, throwing away servlets and jsps does worry me but if it is still Java then it is still preferable to .Net, right? I may even be able to keep my EJBs ... At US$1500 for a licence, is it worth looking into further? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
