Actually, some folks at Microsoft -- particularly their certification guys -- agree with you:

That's correct, the MCPD: Enterprise Application Developer 3.5 certification specifies a certification for Win Forms, not WPF. There's some controversy over the issue, but, as the blog post points out, it's basically because WPF lacks good tools.
I personally think WPF is an amazing framework that *is* great for enterprise development. The only real problem is the steep learning curve.

When I right click on the setup project and say build the main project builds but the setup project fails. As far as I can tell, it just says 1 built and 1 failed. I cannot even find a reason WHY it failed.
HINTS?! Anybody know where I can even look to get more info about what failed?
Thank you - oh masters of web setup projects.
Arise, dead thread!
I'm just posting this for posterity: I had the same issue: both a web setup project *and* a CAB project would simply fail, with no reason given.
But I went to the output folder, and lo and behold, there were my project files.
I guess it's a bug in visual studio. It *does* successfully build, it just returns an error code.
wierd, huh?

The only thing is it has since saturated my brain so that I end up making he same mistake - ask W3bbo.
Maybe he worked in the shipping business? Setting up a Pier-to-Pier network would be, you know, creating shipping schedules, destinations, that sorta thing.

True, but I think that's a problem of the medium -- it's almost impossible to translate Adams' wit with the written word to the screen. His humor is based on an ironic deconstruction of grammatical expectations. How do you translate "Zaphod bravely hid in the closet" to film, for example?
If you ignore the book and take the movie on its own, IMO, it's quite good.
SaraJo wrote:I felt Trillian was well played, especially. ... I think the sequels would translate to movie better than the first one as well.
Agreed.

Mine too. I just finished reading the series again for the nth time.
What did you think of the movie? I actually rather liked it and would love a sequel, but I find that's an uncommon opinion for fans of the book.

If you're gonna pick a random name for somebody who signs his (her?) posts as "Ix", why not make it "Ford Prefect"?

again, you're being extremely ignorant.
I'm starting to think (and the reason I'm only just now starting to think this may be because of my lack of 4.0 GPA) that he's just trolling.

I'm not privy to what the job pays, but yes most jobs around here are at least 6 figures.
Yeah, I checked out the area when I was job hunting a year or so back.
Here's an odd question -- what's flemington like? The google map's sattelite shows a lot of farmland (and a surprising number of golf courses) -- is it still there, or is it all homes?
