If I had a dollar for every fool who ran out and claimed
that VB is a better language than C#, I'd have my MCSD
paid for in full. And if you want to get into a better
syntax battle maybe you can have a go with the VFP guys.
I personaly think that C# is a better language than VB,
therefor I write in it. If you feel that a fast debuger
is a feature... I think you spend too much time debuging.
