MS is a business not a charity.

There must be many programmers that have no interest in DB.

I have trouble believing the MS just gives away a good IDE to those
programmers free.

Do you expect that there will be no SP for the express version or some
other reason why users will be almost forced to upgrade later?

I'm not anti-MS, it just that businesses do not normally (and should not)
give way products unless they see a return in the future.

I saw a comment that over 5 million programmers have NOT converted to .Net
from VB6. Even a slice of this is a big market, and it seems MS is doing
what it can to get them on the new track.
 
Homer,

And what do you want to tell with that. I think that there are at least ten
times more computers still runing on MS-Dos.

Homer,

My message is not brute meant. I see that it can be read like that.

I could have made the sentence more friendly looking as it was meant.

Even I, who didn't want to upgrade from Win 3.1, am now running WinXP. I
don't think there are too many DOS only users these days! There are probably
more people running TRS-80s, Apples, Ataris and the like than MS-DOS only.
