If your argument is that it "should" work on all machines then its exactly what our vb.net developer tells us: "well, it works on my machine".

Fact is, we have on and off problems with the applications and very little feedback as to why it happens.

Here is another story. My wife and I went to buy some contact lenses from a big chain store. The woman sat us down next to one of the terminals there and try to register us on the system. For some reason it didn't work on that machine and her solution to this was to walk over to another terminal and try there to get it to work. She was successful the second time and guess what system they were using? .NET

Although, I am not saying that it doesn't work 100% of the time, it doesn't work enough for me to write something about it.
It also doesn't work enough for my company to change the whole platform.

@Stu, you are right. I've only been working with windows for 15 years, but clearly its not enough for a person such as yourself.
Mind telling us which specific parts you disagree with?

Wow. What a great post, assuming of course, that your aim was to prove how little you know about windows and the .net framework.

Keep up the good work.
