    ActiveState might.  But they get most of their development money from
Microsoft and I donno if micro~1 wants the VB/vC++ competition.  <shrugs>
and AS may be too busy right now with both Perl and Python plugins for
Visual Studio coming out.
    Programming Win32-GUI is a lot more fun than VB (IMO), but VB can eval
Perl code too so its a little to tell which way things will go.  Prolly all
possiblities at once :-))
