What's your guys general thought on how everything is web based now? For me, I don't really like it. I would just rather have an actual program that runs. But I am merely a user, not a programmer.

Personally I really don’t like it too. But I just don’t care because:

  • I have all needed software locally
  • I have all documentation locally
  • I’m going to Web only to get updates (by-hands of course, no autoupdates without verification!)
  • I’m old software engineer and how to automate it all without losing ctrl ;)
