I'm pretty sick of it and as far as I am concerned .Net can't die a quiet death soon enough. This is VB Forums and not VB.Net Forums. VB.Netters are guests here, and becoming less welcome day by day.
What i find is VB6 developers consistently posting exactly the same argument and moaning about it again and again and again. It just gets boring after a while and its difficult to maintain sympathy for people who are not engaging in reality.

If you see my posts early on these subjects i tried to engage at least but after a while i realised that they all wanted the virtually impossible or nothing.

And also this artificial VB6's vs .Nets things. For many years (and i am sure i am far from the only one) i programmed in VB6, in fact i still do occasionally as we still have systems written in VB6.

I have written in ColdFusion & Flex and PHP

I now write more .Net than anything else BUT i also do more Web then i ever have before, and am moving towards more Json, JavaScript and JQuery.

I like many of us i am sure, i see my self as a Developer, not a .Net developer or VB6 developer, just a Developer!!!

Computer Languages are just tools in our toolbox
