When the heck did .NET took over????

I was looking at job vacancies and all of them all said to the point of must have exp in C# or ASP (for web programming).

When the heck did Microsoft took over??? I though C++ and PHP were reigning still.

But you don't always have the option of choosing who's code to work with.  Sometimes, you're forced to use a specific library or you have to pick up where your sucessor left off.

For what it's worth though, I don't think bounds checking should be built into C.  But implementing it via a library would lead to crumbleson syntax I guess.  getArrayItem( a, i )
