Lhotka’s Post is Pointless – Please Get Rid of VB Microsoft!

Sigh. The VB-bashing is very tiresome. The post seemed very subjective, based on one person's opinion on the syntax of VB. I've used VB, C#, and a number of other languages. But I keep going back to VB because that is what I am familiar with. I actually LIKE the syntax over the C-type.

I agree, personal preference does matter. But I'm tired of people comparing VB.NET and C# and implying that VB is inferior just because it's VB. IronRuby and IronPython are interesting, I want to give those a try in the next few months. I think one strength of .NET is that other languages can be adopted to work with the framework. And the languages all compile to IL (think I have that right), which is what matters in the end.
