[AccessD] time to retire ?

My best current option and this is at the moment is to use ASP.Net to build
a HTML interface, Adobe to build the graphics and a good server for a BE.
ASP.Net for building the presentation and managing data and all the data
processing at the BE. 

I do not like the WebPages to do anything more than manage the interface but
they should manage it all. The sever BE should manage all the data and
nothing else. 

Servers are the best options for now and in the future the Cloud...but IMHO
the Cloud is not ready for primetime but that could all change in a couple
of years.

There are at least two and perhaps many more possibilities lurking in your
statement "I have been moving clients from desktop to the internet and
there is only going to be more demand."

a) Access -> ASP.NET
b) Access -> Cloud
c) something else

Which one have you chosen, and why? Even posing the question makes me feel
like an ancient, but nevertheless....
