Is VB 6.0 becoming obsolete??

Is vb6.0 really becoming obsolete?Almost everyone around feels proud to say that they are a '.Net programmer' as it has become much popular..Even companies prefer .Net programmers!!

Do companies still use vb6.0 for application development?

I ask this question because i'm just digging into vb6 concepts recently,as it has given me the confidence that one can do almost anything with it..

Do u think i must jump on to .Net?

I believe that he means the backround services that run in windows

try going to run and typing ' serices.msc 'and hitting enter and it will give you a list and a description of the services currently installed on your PC, things like virus scanners, print spooler, nvidia display manager etc.
