[AccessD] Deploying .net solutions

ROTFL.  If I actually ever gave a crap about stepping on toes it might, I
suppose, matter (but very damned little as it turns out).  If I stepped on
yours, well... 

Given that soldiers are dying in Iraq, men, women and children are dying in
civil wars all over Africa, opium is the largest cash crop in Afghanistan,
children are used as sex slaves all over the world, the average factory
worker in China makes just a few dollars a day... well... Hmmm...

Just how important is this again?  Java rates about 1 on a scale of 1^99 in
the grander scheme of things and my borrowing a term from that rates
somewhere about 1^9999999 in the scheme of things.

If my borrowing the term bothers you, I would have to say go work on one of
the problems above and then come back in a year and tell me how much it
really matters.

Oh sorry, JC, it's only the most widely used programming language in the
world, but when you're stepping on toes, why not step on the big toe? An
applet is a chunk of Java code that runs inside a web page. Incidentally,
that is not my statistic but Information Week's. That's why I'm learning it
now. Actually, I'm on a crash course at the moment. I'm learning Java, Perl
and C#/VB.NET (they are so similar they might as well be one language, but
there is an objective difference -- you can charge more money for C#; c.f.
Visual Studio magazine's stats).
