Mybe the Only Question I'll ever need answered fro

Which one has the most future in it? Which one can I make
the most money in? Which is superior?

I don't really want to keep relearning everytime the fine
people down as Microsoft decide to "revolutionize" the
language I've spent the last 5 years mastering. ( Not to
sound grouchy ) But I would if it were that much better.

TIA,
Graham
 
That really depends on a lot of things. There's definitely a future in
VB.NET, there's definitely a future in C# and C++ ain't gonna disappear any
time soon. If you are into building GUI intensive apps, VB is probably the
better suited language. If you are into building components and services,
C# and or C++ is probably the better suited langauge. You can make a lot of
money in any language, and knowing a language isn't the only part of making
money with it. What sort of stuff do you build?

However, understanding .NET is much more than learning a new syntax. It is
revolutionary and it takes time and effort to learn, and well worth every
bit of it. I think they are going to keep revolutionizing stuff, I sure
hope so anyway...so take you pick because change is gonna keep hapening.

Your post was encouraging.

Right now I am making a game. I guess that would be GUI
intensive. I don't have any graphics yet, just an engine.
I saw a demo from MS called Terrainium or something like
that. It was great looking to me. Plus it had all the
functionality I could really ever want and it used
the .NET stuff.

I think .NET is right for me, I just wish there was a
project converter for ME. :)

Thanks again,
Graham

A lot depends on the job market in your area or in an area you would like to
move to.
