Does anyone WANT to build client software anymore?
shimi: I'll try throw something in the mix, there is a matter of fashion. Back in the 90's C++ win32/MFC development was the highly regraded, I guess I should note that VB6.0 was very in demand as well, The technology and the market trends have changes so also the developers.I for one don't like to write web applications (mainly because the technology fragmentation), and I prefer to use client application whenever I can.Having say that I can't see myself writing Win32 API as a day job in the near future, for all the reasons mentioned above.
