>Hi Morgan. You are incorrect in your assumptions, and Hector is completely correct. The focus for Visual Basic is going to be more on productivity over C#. There will not be more resources put on C# over VB, it is just the opposite. More is described about this in the Visual Studio roadmap at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/roadmap.aspx related to Whidbey (next version of VS).

Ok, Ken. I understand and read through the roadmap, but it looks like "productivity" for Visual Basic, seems to be the same type of productivity of FrontPage. It makes it much easier to whip out smaller projects, but limits your flexibility. The great thing about .NET is that you could always do certain parts in C#, or any other language if you don't feel that VB.NET has the "power".

I mean, if MS is going to make VB.NET more productivity, why would anyone still use C#, or C++ for .NET programming? IMHO, it seems like more marketing lingo to dumb down the language for entry level people to develop applications more rapidly, but makes it less useful for large scale applications. That is just my opinion though.
