Except El can't upgrade to VS2008 without jumping through hoops because someone said you "could" write games with it. ;P ;)

worse... its not on the approved list because you have to approve all executables before they are loaded on a machine, and VS produces unapproved execuatables. :rolleyes:

Careful, by using that phrase you're dating yourself there. Keep it up and someone'll be filing a Change Request on your software because it describes rotary aircraft as autogyros not helicopters. :laugh:

that is user optional. they can call it a gump if they so choose. :) Some of the pilots I work with are retired Vietnam pilots and their commanding officers are usually older still.

security already informed me a long time ago, if he had his way, I would produce nothing, say nothing, sell nothing, talk to no one, etc. That would be the safest way.... I didn't even comment, you can't say anything to that kind of logic.
