Re: What language do you use?

Robotics--> C (not good at it yet but mentor helps when needed)
Simple Windows Apps--> VB.net
Simple web apps--> ASP Classic (moving away from)
More complex web apps--> ASP.net
Pretty good at but still learning--> PHP
Database Server --> MySQL (LOVE IT! Better than MS SQL Express by exponential amounts. Regular SQL2005 would be my favorite if it wasn't so pricey.)

As far as FIRST goes, I'm still learning with that. When I started at Voltage (2005) there was NO easyC, and we haven't found a reason to start using it yet.

Most people bash vb.net, it's really not that bad once you get into it. Same with Asp.net. I like to stick with the .net stuff because I can pump things out really quickly, though being able to run my apps on Linux would be nice. Especially considering the newest addition to my room is a Sun Microsystems Ultra Enterprise 3000 (6 processors, 6GB RAM) )
