I'm such a bit-player in this whole NetBeans thing. I'm not much more than that in anything else, but I have definitely benifitted from the passion that is pored into this IDE. This piece of software has been really good to me, and, as it looks like I will need to get a new laptop soon, I will probably upgrade from 8.2 to 11 when I do.
May NetBeans live long and continue to provide an easy to use development environment. Owen.
