Last time I looked seriously .net 2 was the new thing. I guess I have some catching up to do.
Now I have a vague, open-ended brief to do programmery stuff and make [client's] error messages go away.
Ok, well, my fee includes your first-born child (for trading purposes), a spot to park my hippie van, and unlimited google access, as I really have no idea and make it up as I go along.
Oh, and alcohol. And chips.

I've been trying to read some C# 1 code of mine tonight.
It wants some help I don't feel like providing.

Hmm... "Here's some code I wrote ten years ago, before .net 2, it was working when I last worked on it, can anyone upgrade it to .net 4.5?"
Yeah, that might work.

Not with pristine spelling like that and a total failure to mention the urgency of such a request.
Ask like that and you'll stand-out a mile-off.

I see bits and pieces but I don't have a feel for this new OS yet.
Here are my questions:
1: Will the browser support Silverlight?
2: Will it be the same OS across desktop, tablet, phone?
3: Should I hold off on buying a tablet and phone until this is released?
4: Will VS2012 work on this OS?
Most of the news stories are about the 'Start' button or some other ridiculous concern.
The absence or inclusion of 'charms' don't mean no thang to me.

1. Yes, it does
2. Don't know, but probably
3. No
4. Yes, I've been using it on Wen (W10).

I never could understand the concern about the start button. Once I got used to using the start page I never thought about the missing start button. Apparently, it was a big deal to people who are stuck in a rut.
Once you lose your pride the rest is easy.
I would agree with you but then we both would be wrong.

I don't see what the fuss is about the Start button either. Any menu for that matter - my PC isn't a deli where I want to browse around and slowly pick something nice looking to run. I know what I want to run, and just use Windows key and type the first few letters of the app name.

I have many more than 3 applications installed on my computer and do not see the problem you are having.
Qute possibly you are in the wrong profession if you cannot adapt to a new interface.

Quite possibly you like your new toy, but also quite possibly a lot of other people don't like it.
Quite possibly, civilised people can discuss/have a laugh about such differences.
But with comments like your last one, most possibly you're a jerk.

Understanding an interface is not necessarily the same as liking an interface.
I can use the interface on Windows 8 but I still find it retarded on a pc.
A tablet is another thing though.
