No, actually I program with .NET C# 3.5, MS SQL Server and IIS 6.0 and
many other MS products.

However you might be interested to know that the hourly rate for Quick
Basic programmers was $125 per hour last time I had an offer for a
contract updating one of those applications.  We are getting scarce
and many like me just don't want to go through the hassle of it.
