Chris you sound like a grandfather longing for the 'good ol' days'! ;) There are plenty of 'developers' sticking to VB6 and arguing that VB.NET is too hard. You haven't lost any damn punching bag! :laugh:

There's a "priest" named Judas. I hear he's screaming for vengance because of a painkiller :-)

The custom of taking a new name began in 533, when a priest named Mercury was elected pope and felt the name of a pagan god was inappropriate for the successor of St. Peter.

Araxis Merge is pretty slick but, Beyond Compare $30 per license Araxis Merge $269 per license Is it really $239 slicker than Beyond Compare?

I know Java now comes with a JIT too, but the JVM architecture and bytecodes were designed to be interpreted so the have to make several trade-offs to ensure this is possible. On the other hand, .NET was designed from the start to run as native code, using IL as an intermediate step. For these reasons, I don't think that there is a semantic similarity between the JVM and the CLR. Maybe it may help to visualize them as similar, but once you hit the details, there are so many architectural differences that the similarity doesn't hold and just confuses people.

There's no such thing as an ".NET interpreter". .NET always executes code natively. The IL gets compiled into x86 instructions by the JITter before executing.

Would it not be better to let his family preserve whatever dignity they can, and simply move on. When somebody had no dignity in life he doesn't deserve any in death.

When I said your're in the "vast minority" what I was refering to was as an highly experienced developer. The the "majority" of developers aren't experienced or motivated as you are. And for those developers, and the companies that hire them, .NET is a great help.
