It seems Microsoft wants some "Killer Apps" for
their not so successful yet platform. Remembers
me to the OS/2 vs. Win war times, where IBM tried
to buy companies only to force them to port their
apps to OS/2. We all know what happened to
their efforts. IMHO staying independent is the best.
BTW, AB exists longer than .NET ...
And, IMHO it should be higher prioritized porting
AB first to Linux.
Just my .002 cents to this dicussion.
UM
MCSD :-)
