The ideas we can discuss at the next meet.. for anyone interested:

This is where I am at:

I wrote an application in Visual Basic 6 that I think could be fined-tuned (good enough to sell for a few dollars). If the main idea sells, we have to re-write it, because it wont grow/scale in its current condition. I want it, or any other desktop like idea to be Enterprised based ($100,000 per company on licenses.. thats how much we pay for Ent. license for any crappy software).

I sank $800 last night to buy Visual Studio .NET 2010. I already found a few architectures, so that I dont have to start from the ground up. Now problem with .net and the architectures is requiring users to install .net 4 or silverlight and the deep learning curve with the architecture.

I think the biggest money maker will be a web site. I registered the company, selected a .NET infrastructure (DotNetNuke), deployed a blank web site to the world, and I am ready to design/build.

If you are all Java developers, I know Java good enough to fix any problem or build a module; not good enough to write an application or web site from the ground up. But I make a living supporting three web sites that run on a Java infrastructure (web servers, weblogic/websphere, maven, hudson, subversion, logs, debugging, datacenter experience). Java is free, but at work we pay like $20,000 for weblogic licences (per server). I hope there is cheaper hosting out there.. but our hosting costs are in the millions.

what do you guys know?

I know I didn't pay $800 for VS 2010 .... It's called BitTorrent, look into it

And you don't have to write in .Net 4, that just means you have .Net 4 features available... You can still write and compile for .Net 3 or 3.5

Oh, and as this thread was for us to talk crap (not work)... Yo momma has hairy boobs ...

I get all Microsoft software for free through work, but I need retail version to compile and sell. I also want to be careful that my company doesn't say later that the work is somehow theirs.

Thanks for the tip on .net 3 vs .net 4 compilation.

I left IRC, emule and bittorrent years ago. Once in a while I'll get on emule to grab something, but get off right away.
