FWIW, I see .NET catching on practically *everywhere*, and it doesn't seem like it's because it's hyped like Java was. It seems like developers and managers alike are genuinely happy with it. It seems like Microsoft finally got something right (first time - took them over twenty years). Personally, I'm happy with C++ and Python, but the .NET framework is a good piece of work. C++ is woefully lacking in support for threading, networking, web services, etc. Python is great but not fast enough. It was inevitable that Redmond would eventually do something good. Their support for Web Services is hard to beat, and that's the way of things these days. -- Best regards, Chuck _______________________________________________ Edu-sig mailing list Edu-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/edu-sig
