Dear: Ben Noble

I would like to thank you, I find your comment inspiring and uplifting.

If your the competition in the computer science field I should have a job directly after graduation.

OK now then.

Everything has it's place in the IT industry. Linux runs servers beautifully. Microsoft right now does s better End-User job on the desktop. Visual Basic is perfect for little stuff to please the managerial staff. Java and C++ works better for those releasable programs which need to be polished and perfect. ASP is great for certain things, but some things just run better through PHP. There's always choices in any field. their all tools. STAY OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE AND USE THE BEST TOOL FOR THE JOB. Or you might not have that job very much longer.
