I missed this one. :)

You got the wrong drum roll.

What's the big deal with connecting to a database with a *connection string*
using RDO ADO or ADO.NET in a program VB, VB.NET, C++, C#.NET or otherwise?

In addition to that when IBM, RCA, Control Data etc were GODS with
accounting systems that ran on those platforms, they were just as good and
may have been better in some situations, especially true with dumb monitors
with the programs centrally located on the iron horses and not distrubuted.
MS didn't invent accounting systems, databases, computer languages, O/S or
anything else. MS is just another fly in the long line of flies in the
ointment.
