Don’t JUMP to .net

by petergatzios . Updated 20 years, 9 months ago

I can’t find a simple, straightforward answer as to why I should move away from the technology I’m using and go to .NET. This site http://msdn.microsoft.com/vjsharp/jump/default.aspx let’s me know HOW but not WHY. Well, they do give one reason, so I could take advantage of xml. (Which I can do anyway). But here’s what I’m using my technology to design http://www.iokio.com/myff/gm_used_2_door/ .
Technology will come, and technology will go. Why should I consider this .net framework as having any more staying power than let’s say “the video phone”?

p.s. btw, to me it seems like PASSPORT is losing ground. Maybe chalk this one up as well?
