Hi Tomas,

Yes, you are right but I'm just tired of learning every small detail of a
Microsoft technology just to discover after 2-3 years that it was thrown
away by MS and replaced with something more "cool".

I've spent a lot money and time learning about COM just to use it a couple
of times. Now, COM is (almost) dead, long live .NET, and so on.

I made the decision to learn more about C++, Object Oriented Analysis and
Design, UML, Rational Unified Process and other knowledge areas that are
tehcnology independend.

BTW: I went recently to a meeting with Bjarne Stroustrup and in less than 2
hours I discovered that after 10 years of C++ I still have a lot to learn.
The guy talked about function objects (functors) and generic programming.
