Article: Microsoft walks VB tight rope

“Microsoft remains “firm” in its plans to end free support for Visual Basic 6 at the end of the month”…Microsoft walks VB tight rope

A good overview article, with links, on the happenings around MS ending VB6 support in a couple weeks.

Another interesting quote:

“Surveys by Evans Data indicate that the number of VB6 developers outnumber the people who have learned VB.Net. Forty-four percent of developers report working with VB, while 34 percent work with VB.Net–a percentage that has remained constant since the introduction of VB.Net at the end of 2002″

Also, DDOE had a post about the subject the other day.
