      C# is a disaster for anything aside from windows programming, and if you are using it for anything else, you're insane. As a windows application development language, C# (and .NET) are very nice indeed. "The Yahoos refused to be tamed."

      Why do you exclude web application development from that? ASP.NET with C# is like an orgasm on tap.

                :) To be honest, the last time i actually used it was a few years back. I was taking a class on web-dev with ASP, and getting bored with the projects... so for one i did a partial Forth interpreter in ASP, and implemented the rest of the project using it. Not the most modern of languages i guess, but hard to beat for pure fun...

                  I remember my dad messing around with Forth at home around 15-20 years ago maybe. He got all excited about improving some algorithm. I think I mumbled "That's nice" around a mouthful of King Vitmain cereal. :) Never got much beyond a quick look at his code, I was too busy playing soccer at the time. BW

                          of course, this is programming 101, but the point is that you must know what you're doing and that it's good to have a choice. without deterministic finalization, all resource management (except memory) is left to developer, so if you share the same object among multiple clients you have to take special care of who is calling Dispose() and this can get really ugly. this can be avoided if your object can wait for garbage collection cycle, but some resources are scarce and you must dispose them a.s.a.p. that said, i think that C# is generally going in good direction, it is just too protective for my taste. my current favorite for .NET programming is C++/CLI, but unfortunately, i don't get to use it at all

                                  There's a (very slight) difference in pronunciation between "eau" and "o"...IMO the beauty of French words comes also from their history, their etymology...that's why the way words are written may vary from their phonetic value. It's probably hard to understand for someone used to a germanic language :-D

In Swedish, I would definately spell it with an "å". But since we're a lazy bunch of people here up north, we just assimilate the word as if it was our own. I think the word is used for perfumes.
