Opinions - What's Next In Development Technology?

With .NET becoming the right tool to use now what do you think is going to
be the next great development technology?

Thanks!

VS.NET 2005 is slated to include Clippy:

Seriously though, a lot of work is going into things like ORM (see C?:
http://research.microsoft.com/Comega/), and AOP. Forecasting their success
is tricky though. There's a lot of questions about AOP, and ORM's haven't
had much success so far.
Thanks!

I come from the Access world. I am learning VB/ADO.NET...I think things are
going backwards. I can do things in Access much faster than .NET.
FunctionOverloading is great....but I think Access is a remarkable product.
If they included a compiler and use the ADP (sitting on top of SQL Server)
then you've got it made.
I am talking more about developing apps for internal departments in companies.

I have little experience with Access. I have made one commercial app with
Access for payroll and few inhouse apps. I think Access is good for small
inhouse applications but it have its limitations.

With VB.NET you can do almoust anything :) And not forgetting ASP.NET
