Nobody knows the answer on your question than some people at Microsoft.
This question will certainly not be answered by Microsoft in a
newsgroup. I once have read from a Microsoft employee in this newsgroup that the
change that they port Office to Net is small. However with Microsoft you
never know and the certainly don't tell it to everybody. Even not there
own employee's, so don't blaim him when he wrote it wrong.
Just my thought,
Cor
Doesn't it seem strange that after three years or so, there isn't a single
major application that runs under the .net framework?
I thought by now virtually everything would be .net, including Windows
itself and that Win32 would be history.
Is the transition taking longer than Microsoft thought it would? Is
Microsoft having second thoughts about .net?
Try to Google this group. You have a similar thread and a link to a blog
where someone from MS posted some. Most of them are not "ported" but new. In
particular all new web based applications are now written using .NET (much
easier to see it is than others). Others integrates with .NET at some degree
(Office, SQL Server 2005).
Also it seems you are confusing things. Windows and Longhorn and any OS
won't be written using .NET any time soon (they are exposed to the outer
world as Managed APIs but typically you won't care about this). MS just
likely keeps picking the best fit for each particular application instead of
blindy picking always the same solution.
You should just do the same. Its it good for you or not ?
