RANT: Beginning startup

Hi /prog/

I'm starting a startup, but the thing is, i have 2 associates, they are average programmers like me, but they don't seem to like their job as much as i do.

Now, i'm preparing the environments (wikis, vps machines, accounts, languages, compilers, databases). I didn't asked them for help, but we discussed this many times, and we agreed that we should share the workload,

Now they know everything i'm doing, but i haven't yet received even a single message like "can i help?" or even "what are you doing".

Now, i'm feeling hopeless. I feel alone against the world, and if in this stage, just preparing for the projects, i don't get a helping hand, what can i expect later? I don't care for employees, i want partners.

What can i do /prog/ ???

We all worked on desktop apps back in the day (Visual C++, Delphi, VB, etc), written web services in old good C, but face it, nowadays productive work is mostly done via web apps.

The only desktop apps development i've seen those days are on very specific areas (Like risk-management in banks, for example), and mostly like maintenance tasks.

Even in those applications there is always some part of those systems that can be done with browsers. Specially for reporting.
