Part of my company has a Windows guy in charge.
Most of the people who work for him have constructed some rather
large, profitable systems. In Perl / Oracle / Unix.
So of course, their future is .Net / VB or C# / SQL/Server / Windows.
With a few very expensive long term consultants doing most of the work.
I forwarded the Ping-Pong link to his boss, with the comment: Only the
consultants win.
