I see these as perceived benefits of C# and perceived weaknesses of VB .NET.
A benefit not taken advantage of provide zero value...

Since C# is a standard, which is based on other standards (C/C++) when VS.NET 2.0 comes out, I may need to adapt my code for new framework classes, but thats about it. With VB.NET, a proprietary language, it may... and probably will change a little bit. It has in the past, I don't see why it will stop now.
