"Wooohooo. Dittos from me. I went Java as well, use some php. As I point out repeatedly, the other big factor for us small guys is that I don't want to be rewriting my code every few years to match some new Microsoft fad designed to be an excuse for another upgrade fee. As a small entity, I can't afford to be yanked around like that."

Got it in one. The next generation of code that runs our instruments will be Linux-based for that very reason.
