Hello there!

I know it sounds a little boring questions for you
people, but I need to ask. I have used Java language for
programming in my uni, but then I left programming. Now
I'm thinking of coming back to programming, but I want to
use Microsoft technologies. So should I go for VB.NET or
C#.NET. One of the fact is I do like Java and C++ because
they look more like programming language and you really
learn some program logic and design. Its because I used
Java for Algorithm design and I dont think VB (I am
familiar a little with VB6) can give that taste of a
programming language. I know C#.NET is a lot like Java,
apart from that fact which one is better to learn. Its
all confusing, han? That's why this thread :-)

Thank a lot in advance for your suggesions.
