This whole thread was centered around your old boss's desire to convert an
existing VFP system to .Net. I'm not sure where you changed the subject to
developers.
But, if you want to talk about developers....
I don't think any of the folks I know that have taken the time to really
understand .Net believe it's the end-all answer. If they're sticking with
it, it's only because they believe they can bill hours with it. Not that it
provides any real technical advantage. But there are a few that are solely
focused on web pages and they do believe it's easier to work with than the
previous .asp model.
But why are we now talking about developers? You brought this up after you
called me biased. Are you saying I'm biased because I didn't jump on the
.Net bandwagon? Ok. I'm biased. And you're biased because you jumped on the
.Net bandwagon. What did we solve with that? If you're going to ignore
'observations' from others just because they don't do things the way you do
them, you're going to repeat mistakes, and offer bad advice, that could
have been avoided.
