Good for you.. Mr. Knuth

I think the actual reason is not because of .NET awesomeness, Companies in UK have always invested in Microsoft technologies. I remember back in early 2000s, UK was the only place with a great demand for VB developers. and majority of the current work being advertised, involve rewriting the existing VB applications in C#.

Impressive.... but damn, why do i feel like a junkie

So, how did you find out that the person talking to you was in UK, "Mr french staying in Germany"

And a company that was worth 2 billion dollars with a decreasing revenue stream. As an ex employee of autonomy i can definitely say that HP made a very very big mistake.

As an ex employee of Autonomy, i must say that its actually good news for the employees. I spoke to my ex-colleagues and they sounded upbeat. Autonomy was a sweat shop. You were paid pittance and employees outside cambridge were hardly recognized. It was one of the worst companies to work for.
