I have just completed my first Hello World program in C# in Mono in
Ubuntu. I even customized it for this group, as indicated by the
image below.<br><br>

By this evening, I should have a 1 million object astronomical entity
tracking system which can accept 2 million hits / second on a
website. OK, I made that up, maybe I won't finish that today.

Seriously, my goal is to be employable as a C# programmer within 6 mo to
1 year spending a few hours per day. I spent several years
programming Clipper for Delta Air Lines, so I've been through this
before. What I haven't done before is the object oriented stuff and
the GUI stuff and the multi-threaded stuff and the web site stuff.
So, I know there's a big learning curve. I'd appreciate any help
anyone familiar with C# is willing to give.<br><br>
I know C# is usually a Microsoft thing, but I understand that quite a bit
of Linux development is using it too, and that it makes a good cross
platform language.<br><br>
Sincerely,<br><br>
