new Client/Server-Application in 2007 with .net or win32 ?

Well, is this a question in 2007 with the stable .net version 2 (perhaps 3.5 in the next month)??? Microsoft latest Win32-development is with VB6 very very old and all the newer visual studio version creates .net-application in Basic, C# and so on....
And CodeGear create a Delphi-Version in the year 2007 with Vista-support, but for Win32....

I remember the blog from holger about managed code or not on this blog Managed code is too slow... yeah, right... and the following discussion ...

I have a new project this month, and surprise surprise, a database-application with Oracle in the background.
I've moved all my application since last september from Delphi 7 to Delphi2006.win32 and I'm happy about the IDE-feature and the speed. I think it's really fast and we can compare it absolutely with Delphi7. With the BDS I have the choice to work on both world... but last weekend I made the decision: the project will be a Win32-application. I admit that I haven't found anything in the .net-framework that make the decision to .net ...
Remember, this is "only" a c/s-application, no 3-tier, webapplication or other remote dataconnection.....
I started a new Win32-project with the DOA-components from allroundautomations, the QuantumGrid v5 from DevExpress and Nevrona Rave Reports, of course.

Perhaps someone can give me a hint why this is the wrong decision for a new application in the year 2007.......
In the meantime I will develop and have finish my database-modelling (Tips for Datamodelling).... and learn at the moment the power of Castalia 5.1 for my daily work. In this tool there are really cool and powerful features included, congrat Jacob, great job!

the only point for .net is at the moment ECO, but I admit that I haven't found the door to go into this new house and use this Framework in my BDS2006.... Sometimes I will read the ECOBook from Alois and hope to realize the help of ECO to do my job better and faster.... but you know: things.take.time.

-take care
