.NET has started to blur the lines in programming...
You can have some one write the base classs in VB , but you can take that class in it's IL form and write a class derived from the Vb source in C#, What matters in the IL. You no longer have to have all your crew writeing in one language to achive the desired results.
This is what drew me towards .Net,up untill I took a real close look at .Net , I was a Java person.. But .Net seemed so much better organized and logical than Java...Granted they had time to stand back and watch Sun make alll the mistakes..but with the Mono projrct and others I see .Net getting out beyond what M$ expected.. and balso beyound they wildest dreams ... What would happen if MS office were avalable for a Linux user?
If Microsoft goes full .Net (Which it looks like they are) A .Net version of Office is in the making for Apple OSX, so it does no take a whole lot of work to go from a BSD base to a Linux Base.......... .Net on Apple is a wide open gate for Linux/Mono
