All of the accomplished financial developers that I know don't have time to read books. I think this statement pretty much sums up the whole MS software development community. They haven't read what OO development is all about - small, DECOUPLED code that is well tested. Looks like SI had that special "NT Moment" last night. How long were we down for Reg? I'm glad MS isn't in charge of our 911 service. Mr. B

You said: They do Corba, Java, and MSFT technologies, but the bulk of the money is going into MSFT stuff. Here's some counterpoint: zdnet.com Most of the tool vendors will focus on Java and CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture), and even Microsoft plans to show a renewed focus on Java as a language for enhancing application services that will sit on top of Windows NT 5.0, officials said. A major release of its Visual Studio tool suite is planned. "We are as committed to the Java language as we are committed to Visual Basic and Visual C++," said Product Manager Bill Dunlap. Borland International Inc., of Scotts Valley, Calif., plans to update its C++ Builder, JBuilder and Delphi. It will also consummate its acquisition of Visigenic Software Inc. with a CORBA-based middleware application server. Moreover, this is an outtake from ZDNet, which is generally favorable to MSFT, and it is in an article under the banner of "1998 / Year Ahead" (http://www.zdnet.com/pcweek/sr/1998.html).
