        Web is more challenging. The direction the web is heading is to have a rich user experience like Windows does. But it will not be easy.

          Uggghhh! Java is safer, but at the expense of expressiveness and raw power. I thought programming languages were for us people to tell computers what to do, not for computers to tell us what not to do.

            I would agree, but would ask them to provide me with every single item sold on eBay, as I need this for testing.

                        From times rac was flogged on the lounge I know there're people in Eastern Europe making good money by local standards from it. Granted their COL is probably only 10% of ours, but I'd still call them success stories. If you mean the first in a 1st world economy you might have a point. :rolleyes:

                            Not at all these days. For instance, Moscow and St Petersburg are both more expensive places to live than New York City. Budapest, Prague, Belgrade and other big Eastern Europe's cities are not much behind.

                              I can only speak for myself, but desktop seems far less stressful and more flexible than web. The last web project we did (a K2.NET workflow solution) was a pain on so many levels - none of which would have been an issue on the desktop. Then again, my idea of fun is writing plug-in code for Visual Studio in C++/WTL, so what would I know...? :rolleyes:

                                If that's not scaled to represent living expenses as a fraction of wages I'd like to see a cite, since it goes against what I've heard from, someone who was until a year or so ago, a Muscovite.

                                  OK. But you have to buy them yourself and bill them against the total balance of the contract. We are not responsible for cost overruns on your end.
