    Well that doesn't sound right.  Microsoft has already payed me
 in excess of -$6,000.00 to use and promote their products.  You
 should complain.  I was wondering about the .NET development suite
 just recently, actually.  I'm still using Visual Studio '97.  It
 works well enough for me.  I recently accepted the -$200
 inducement to pick up the new Power Basic for Windows, but haven't
 put any time into playing with it yet.  I'm not certain that I
 want my credibility to be tainted by allowing Microsoft to pay me
 more than -$1,000 to go with the new .NET development suite.  And
 I'm not sure which package is comparable to the old Visual
 Studio.  It has gotten pretty confusing now.  Or maybe I have just
 gotten too old to make sense of perfectly reasonable things.
