that said...you can download everything you need for asp dev from microsoft
for free including the ide...which indicates to me they don't have the
web-dev language market cornered. they used to charge for that shit. anyway,
any bookstore is your best bet since developing for the web is almost
identical to developing a desktop app. your learning curve will be more
steep unless you are familiar with VB and OOP. unlike php, .net cannot be
quickly learned from internet sources...newsgroups included.

i'd look for work outside of your physical location. consult. work from
home. it's a big world out there and companies don't need to have you in an
office all the time anymore.
