The companies that created them?

In what terms are you referring? Java and J#? Java and any .NET language?

Your subject says VB so I'll assume you want to know the difference between
Java and VB.NET?

1) Syntax - the languages use different language elements

 2) Platforms - currently .NET runs only on the Windows platform, Java is
supposed to work on multiple platforms

3) OOP - both are fully compliant object oriented programming languages

4) Compiled Code - VB.NET compiles to MSIL (Intermediate Language), Java
compiles to Java byte code

5) Runtime - VB.NET and all other .NET languages use the Common Language
Runtime (CLR), Java uses Java Virtual Machines (JVM)

6) Best - .NET of course!! :-)
