What the fuck is .net
« Reply #30 on: 31 December 2002, 12:02 »
.NET is a part of Palladium (which sucks) as well as being a group of programming languages invented by Microsoft which only work on Windows servers. things like C#, ASP and some other things like that are .NET languages. C# is MS's way to try to destroy Java from existance and ASP it to destroy PHP (which will never happen).

.NET is that stupid thing that tries to convince me not to install my scanner. my scanner came with 5 different drivers or so (different languages) so i had to manualy select which language. MS pops up saying "this file is not digital signed!!! continue using it?" and no is highlighted but of course i have to click yes in order to use the friggin scanner. i wonder how many people MS has screwed out of being able to use their Cannon scanner on WindowsXP

i got into an argument about .net just a little while ago. visual studio .net is the set of development languages and tools designed to 'develop on the .net platform' yet the final specifications on .net haven't been released and probably wont be released period. microsoft will probably turn it into something completely different then when they started.
