hehe!,  I know what you mean by how much time it takes to get past
certain learning curves. But once you do and it becomes second nature,
then all seems logical as if that is the way it was supposed to be all
along.  

.NET is Microsoft's answer to Java, yet multi-language. Until recently
I never liked Java due to the byte code interpreter; even on a fast
box Java seems slow.  However, since I learned about JIT I am more
willing to accept it.  

I think the verdict is still out if it will catch on to the point that
all new software on the shelves are written in .NET. 

I've played substantially with Vb.NET. I like it. Better than Vb6 and
VBA.  Simply because it truly an object oriented language.  I have not
yet looked at C# yet, but I did buy a couple or three books on it.  I
too want to learn it.
