"Maybe they'll get it if you write it in another language" [Tim Marman]

do you guys not understand? it means STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. Not, "I AGREE WITH SCOTT"..... and then talk some more about it. It means grow up and move on to something else. There's anew framework out there... go install it and blog about it. Do something other than waste everyones time filtering through garbage posts.

I'm going to stress this to everyone. Do not even think about using VS.NET 2003 until you read this article. You will save yourself a lot of headaches, and a lot of frustrations.

In my previous post, I talked a lot about the new Framework 1.1 and VS.NET 2003, and how they deal with the old stuff. After reading the first comments of my last post, I realized it might take more explaining than I thought. This may be a hard thing to swallow, so clear your mind, and be ready to take the red pill:

Just to let you guys know, the build numbers haven't changed between the Framework 1.1 Final Beta and the Release. (v1.1.4322). I'm going to assume that this means that Paul Wilson's bug goes unfixed in the final release, but I'll let Rob Howard or Scott Guthrie answer that for me.

I finished my third article for Builder.com last night, and I'm really stoked. In case you haven't noticed by now, I really like writing about .NET, even thou you wouldn't notice it from my blog. This article is entitled: Preventing “Middle Child Syndrome” In Your Data Layer. Now, you're probably sitting there going, 'WTF does that mean?' Well, here's a sample:

I caught this article on MSNBC a few minutes ago, and one Iraqi's words really touched me, and I wanted to share them with you.
