Re: Dot net and all that

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Me having extolled the virtues of genuine vb6, my son believes
he should go to NET 2.0. Looks like that is only by *subscription*
in Australia. Typical Micro$oft. So I'm encouraging a move to
Delphi. What do you people think?

Doesn't that depend on your son? If he's like
most teenage boys then I expect that suggesting
.Net might be the best way to drive him to VB.
There's nothing more distasteful, when struggling
to establish one's manhood, than taking advice
from Mom. :)

I think the guaranteed way to drive him to VB is for Suzy to **forbid** him to learn VB.NET... if she does that, he'll be proficient in it within a couple of months.<g>
