It's only .NET that's suffering. As long as you are in something solid like Oracle or SAP, you'll be fine.

I've always agreed Prawn; and still do. But, whilst being in a comfortable contract at the mo, I do still have the odd gander at Jobswerve and it seems slim pickings right now - I'm a vastly experienced, naturally talented Oracle DBA, BTW
