[Tutor] vb6.0

[Brian Wisti]

If you have the will, then definitely give it a shot. There are a 
tremendous number of resources out there for learning Python, and most 
of them cost much much less than $1000. Learning Python will increase 
your understanding of programming in the same way that learning a new 
musical instrument will increase your understanding of music. I am more 
than a little biased, but I happen to think you will enjoy Python more 
and create more ambitious applications with Python, because it is so 
easy to get started - and stays right with you as your projects get more 
complex.

Python is free, the tutorials are plentiful and free, and the community 
is enthusiastic. Come on in, the water's fine :-)

Kind Regards,
Brian Wisti
