I like VB better, too, though mainly because I have so little time to learn and practice, and VB doesn't require much to get started. A quick and dirty utility I may need only once can be banged out in VB in an hour, while doing the same in VC would take me two weeks of alternating between searching through endless docs for what I need and trying out different code until it works cleanly. "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Recursion." "Recursion who?" "Knock, knock..."

          Hmmm. Interesting logic. Let's say that I belong to a small tribe, an obscure race of people in the jungle with only 1000 people in our entire culture. What would your reaction be if I said that there were far more inferior Indians than people of my culture, because you have millions of people in your country and I only have 1000? I realize that this is all just troll bait to begin with, but the implication, subtle or not, is that MS developers are in general inferior to JSEE developers. And that's about as silly as my contrived example. A good programmer is a good programmer. Language is irrelevant (because if it's not, then he's not a good programmer). Shame on you, Nish. You're too smart to fall for silliness of this nature. Chistopher Duncan Author - The Career Programmer: Guerilla Tactics for an Imperfect World (Apress)

If you knew all the silly things I've did then you wouldn't call me smart. My smartness is unfortunately not uniform. It's spread out in different levels all over the place. I am sorta okay at some stuff and a total fool at others :-( Nish

              I believe that particular smiley requires a leading space to be properly rendered. ;P "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Recursion." "Recursion who?" "Knock, knock..."

One guy spent time to master A SINGLE language, while the other has a much wider knowledge base of languages, compliers, file processing and databases which makes him a complete developer not just a C hack.
