First I'd like to state that voting a program dead without even trying it is very rude behaviour in my opinion.
For your interest: .net is the new standard development language of windows vista, the new vista gui is completely .net based and vista will of cause ship with the .net framework. So you will get it automatically sooner or later. You can expect a lot of applications appearing in .net soon, which will run directly on vista and will also run on XP with the .net framework 3 installed.
From the developer point of view, .net offers a whole lot of advantages, it makes the applications cleaner and more robust, offers much more flexible ui, frees you from memory leaks and a whole bunch of security issues that all normal (c++) apps suffer. This benefits the developer and the enduser too. |
