Powerhouse to .NET

[Olmos, Fernando(Sericon at Alcoa)]

Woah! PH to .NET? That's like moving from planet Earth to try and colonise
Mars! Biiiiiggggg step. Oh it can be done, but unless you are on Bill Gate's
payroll, well... it just ain't worth it.

What makes me laugh is microsoft going into this .NET world they've created
for themselves, yet their database connectivity technology is basically
still the same with a slightly improved ADO and relevant ODBC drivers for
external BIG & HUNGRY databases like Oracle.

It's almost like trying to hold down a Ford truck's engine with needle and
threads.
