[DUG] DBS2006 and .NET 2.0

Those are good questions!
 
If you want to be on the Highlander beta, you can do .NET 2.0 Delphi
development now. When are you planning on releasing your product? You
can also do C# if you want, as you say, a lot of Delphi developers are
learning C# (as it is pretty easy). 
 
If you specifically want to use .NET 2.0, you only have two options -
Highlander beta and VS.NET 2005. If you are happy to stick with .NET 1.1
for the short term, then I really recommend using BDS and taking a good
look at ECO. Andy Bell in Auckland is doing both - he does ECO (as he
can't drop it, it makes him too productive) and he uses C# on .NET 2.0
as he likes the language extensions it provides.

I was thnking of Delphi.NET,  OR am I better to forget about Delphi.NET
and use C#?
The reason I ask is, we are needing to do some new development and I
have FINALLY got a chance to use .NET and move forward technology wise.
We have Vis Studio 2005 and would prefer to use Delphi.Net now, since
Delphi is (1) our language of choice, and (2) use it as a spring board
int C# which mose ex. delphi developers seem to bedoig these days.

You answered your own question. 
 
95% of people who use Delphi use Win32. Why would they use .NET?
 
If you want .NET 2.0 now, then you will need to use VS.NET2005. But many
people, who want .NET, after seeing ECO, are perfectly happy to wait, or
mix.

Ok, so forgive my ignorance here, but why would I get D2006 now, when I
can use .NET 2 in the "Other"' product?  That of course I besides the
fact that I can use the latest Delphi W32 enhancements etc.
