"It appears vb.net is one of the greatest accomplishments in Microsoft
history"
VB.net on *winforms* is great. Yeah, I felt like Homer at first: the
transition from vb6 to VB.Net 2005 was painful. VERY painful. But I was
determined to get it and when the light clicked, man... from that point on
it all just flowed. And I began to hate dealing with legacy VB6 code.
But then I tried to use VB.Net on asp.net web pages. And the pain began
anew... only thanks to Microsoft's paranoia of the internet also extending
to the intranet, I don't think THIS pain is going to ease. It's just gonna
get worse.
Greatest accomplishment? Sure-- with caveats.
