There are plenty of good reasons to use Python. One of them is the laughs you can get any time jmf posts here. There are also plenty of good reasons to drop Python. One of them is because corporate products like Microsoft Visual Studio are inherently better specifically because they cost you money, and there's no way that something you paid nothing for can ever be as good as that. Plus, you get to write code that works on only one platform, and that's really good. Finally, moving off Python would mean you don't feel obliged to respond to jmf, which will increase your productivity measurably. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
