Re: Am I mistaken, or was .NET originally offered only as a "subscription"?

  I don't think it was ever a subscription. But if that
was the only reason you hesitated then you might
want to read up on it. There are lots of pros and
cons comparing VB to VB.Net. And now with MS
pushing Metro apps, the landscape is dramatically
changing. Which tools make sense will depend on
what you're wanting to do.


| For whatever reason, I remember thinking it might be nice to try to move 
to VB.Net many years ago, but part of what turned me off was the thought 
that I could no longer "own" the development program the way I owned VS6, 
but instead had to subscribe to it.

| Perhaps I was wrong then.  It appears that now this is not the case.
