You don't *really* expect to get balanced information with a request like
this, do you?

Opinions about MS abound and rarely are they very helpful. Take them with
the grain of salt they deserve.

.Net is being welcomed among experienced VB/ASP developers as a great leap
forward in an already very productive environment. It is the future. Not the
only future, nor is this an OS war. But about the 'relevance' or 'viability'
of .Net, there should be little question.

You can develop in the language of your choice (C++, COBOL, VB, C#, Java,
etc) and still plug into .Net. Even folks who like curly braces will feel
right at home!
