>From what I have seen and have read, Java or C#, if you want to stay in programming. Learn the .NET framework but I wouldn't bet on Microsoft supporting it for long. Seems they change what they will support every time they change their operating system. With Java you can program in everything from cell phones to games to web applications. C#, of course, is the latest resurrection of C which never seems to be a bad bet. With both you can program in both *nix and Windows.

For the last 14 years or so I have been doing programming support and light DBA work; first in Universe (Prime Information) and now in Unidata (Pick). I'm basically a one-trick pony (UniBasic and System Builder) because my goal has always been to move into a business analyst role, but that has never worked out (I'm too IT). Last fall I decided to stop trying to pursue that and stay in what I'm doing. So now I need to decide what I should invest my educational dollars. I want to stay in application development and support because I like better than techie stuff. So what would you suggest I begin learning that would keep me reasonably employable in the future? Thanks.
