I also found out that the pure ".NET" search is skewed since it also picks up any companies that have a domain name ending in .net ... not exactly what I was looking for ... but the VB.NET anc C# searches took care of that ... I didn't do an ASP.NET search either ... here it is:

ASP.NET: Monster = 523
ASP.NET: HotJobs = 343
