SAS. Going strong and steady since 1976.

Whoooooosh !!!! That was the sound of the original post going over my head - apologies.

Always leading edge but not too niche - that's what I reckon. C#.Net 2.0 and SQL 2005 should be good for a year or two yet. It has to be backed up with decent business knowledge though - that's the differentiating factor between getting £300 or getting £600.

it's not and this lot won't get in anyway so there's no point bleeting about it

bleating

[DimPrawn]

that's what I mean, it's too for late this lot here to get in

they need to look for the next band wagon and get on before
everyone else

as Pondlife or somebody said we have to keep our eyes open and be agile and move with the market, this year it's .Net, what will it be next year ?

.NET 2.0

It's not this lot you have to worry about, but these people:

SAP Resumes

SAP is obviously the future

[Pondlife]

The results are in....

The best bandwagon to jump on is....

SAP 17.24%
.NET 31.03%
Open Source tulip 3.45%
anything non-technical 48.28%

get on with your .Net folks and accept your place in
contracting society

[Joe Black]

oh yes it is

[milanbenes]

oh no it's not

.Net is the future

There is a difference between high barriers to entry and niche.

SAP is mainstream and not niche but it has high barriers to entry so is the one to get into.

Objective C or whatever is merely niche. There might only be a handful of people who are seriously skilled in it, but with only one or two contracts about, it won't pay it's way.

No, if you want the money you need to be into SAP.

SAP is the future.

[milanbenes]

what's objective c ?

sounds like a debate

I can't do c, always got lost between linked lists and pointers and arrays

[TheMonkey]

thanks Lock,

I'm only joking

As a contractor it is better to be in an area of technology which
is not so accessible

barriers to entry are the key to contractor success

Milan - In "Complete Tosser" mode!

Which is why I'm looking at Objective C / Cocoa on Mac

[milanbenes]

no problemo matey.
