Chances are, a lot of people are going to soil their pants. As it is, I've
been reading up on it myself -- it seems fitting to use a toy language like
VB for a toy OS like Windows. I suppose I shouldn't complain too much; it
*does* pay the bills, and it's not like the boss insists that I run XP at
home.

Besides, I tried C++ under Windows and had nightmares for a month.

Ah. It looked like LISP because I've been learning a bit of elisp so I can
play with XEmacs a bit. For scripting I've been learning to read Perl. I
might not hack Perl much, but if I'm going to use Unix I should at least
know how to read the stuff.
