>Of course they will. If you read my comments closely you will see that my concern was, and is, the extent to which Microsoft are turning themselves into a one-product company.
They always have been a one-product company. Windows.
The .NET Framework, as far as I'm concerened, is the first step in a piece-meal approach to completely replacing the Windows API with something a little more modern.
>That is, in itself not necessarily a bad thing, assuming that .NET is the 'right' one product. My position is simply that it is not.
Do you think that after DDE, OLE, COM, COM+, and WinDNA that the win32api is a sustainable platform for five or ten years down the road?
If I were Microsoft, I wouldn't be resting my one-product strategy on an outdated, discombobulated, spaghetti patch-worked code base.
>Of course, that's just my opinion and it has as much (or as little) value as anyone else's
Awwww, too modest, Andy.
