What Operating System

I'm looking at diving into .net and have several questions.

At this plant site we have a diversity of PC's with
different operating systems from WIN98, Win2000 to XP-Home
and XP-PRO and NT 4.0.

Which operaing systems can the .net development system be
installed on?

Which operating systems can the .net application be
deployed on?

DO you need to worry about which system to develope on
when deploying to several different systems?

Hi,

You can install the .Net framework in 98,NT,XP, 2000 etc
If you are developing web applacations using asp.net, then
you need IIS 5.0 and above. So you need at 2000, XP, 2003
etc.
Please refer the following link for more info.

You can install it to NT4....you are correct that you cannot run any
ASP.NET, but then I thik you can still run Cassini through Web Matrix on NT4
to get asp.net functionality. Dont know about deployment problems though.

We are not currently developing web based applications so
the IIS server is not in the picture. XML is not in the
picture.

Main development will be VB running on client machines
accessing enterprise data on an IBM AS400.

At one time I had read that it required Win2000 or better
for use as the development platform but then subsequently
I read that you could place it on an NT4.0 machine with
service pak 6a installed. Is that correct?(NT4 SP6a)

I have also read nasties about developing on an XP class
machine and deploying on a Win98 machine with very bad
results.

Hi John,
I was also hit with confusing since some say 2000 and some say NT4 sp6. I
did a little search on microsoft site and found, that the .Net platform
(.NET Redestributable ) can be installed on NT4 sp6. Which means that you can
run .NET programs on it. What you can NOT install is the .NET SDK or visual
studio .Net. It is only supported on 2000 and forward.

Hello. I recently came across a free operating system called Unununium (or something like that) and it was developed in Python and Assembly.

I don't mind assembly so much if I don't have to use it very often. But C++ is so complicated and errors are pretty much impossible to find in the code...
