But supposedly, that's a new feature coming in VB.NET VS 2010. C#.Net can use Lambda expressions currently. VB.Net has a more limit usage of 'pointers', and C#.Net doesn't have a limitation in using 'pointers'. C#.Net has Auto-Implemented properties. I guess they are working on that in VB.Net. C#.NET is a standard and is controlled by the ISO and ECMA Standard Committees, which MS sits on the committees along with IBM, HP and others to control what happens to C#.NET. That's why C#.NET is popular. VB.NET is propritary to MS and MS controls VB.Net.
