Winchester Mystery House Video
October 20th, 2007
I’ve long said that many VB6 applications remind me of the Winchester Mystery House. This house, built by the heiress to the Winchester Rifle Company, is a sprawling mansion that had additions made to it essentially on the whim of the owner. Architecturally its a mess, but it still functions, much like a lot of VB6 programs you see with hundreds of forms and modules and with nooks and crannies that just don’t make any sense at all.
Here’s a video tour by the guys who did the Weird US series on the History Channel. It’s a fun video. Watch it and see if your VB6 app has something in common with this house.
