With the great apple survival sellout MS Office and VB will be appearing there soon. That just leaves unix as the only platform to worry about and most of us don't have unix machines at home its mostly PC's and Mac's. Given the requests for ftmap for win32 I'd implement it in VB and be dammed. The only problem with VB is the ludicrously large runtime DLL you have to release with it. Java maybe, both it and VB look good on a CV these days.
