If Microsoft one day decides to stop work on .NET or goes out of business, well then that's just too bad. It's proprietary, belongs only to Microsoft and no one has access to the source code to continue its work. Seeing the major breakthrough PHP has made in the past few years, does your boss really think PHP is going away? I see that Perl is still around. -- --Matthew Sims --<http://killermookie.org> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
