Re: Learning asp.net framework -- what version? use 1.1 or 2.0 / VS.Net 2003 or 2005 ???



Hi Sam,

VS.Net 2003 works with .Net Framework 1.1 apps, and VS.Net 2005 works with
..Net Framework 2.0 apps. If you're just starting out learning, I don't see
why you should spring for the new version, unless you can afford it. It has
some features, classes, etc., that are not available on the 1.1 Platform.
But if you're just starting out, I don't know that you will want to, for
example, get into Generics. Once you've got some experience under your belt,
for sure, get the new version. You can use both on the same machine.
