While I was reading another thread where posters are complaining MS, it makes me wonder for those unhappy users, who wants to get out, who were able to get out, who were stucked. What would be a better alternative to VB?

I think I'm sort of stucked. I developed a VB project which has on-going developments. It'd be too hard to rewrite the whole thing again. I'm still using VB5 SP3 and have no desire to upgrade. The downside, there are no more bug fixes, MS'd force you to go to VB6 if you want improvements.

But for future new developments, I'm looking for other development tools.
