Learning VB.NET, resources

[Nicomachus]

hey, I want to learn VB.NET. I understand the basics of programming, I can read simple (very simple) c/c++ to an extent, and I did start learning vb6 though never finished. I'd like to find some online resources if I can (broke, i have beta2 from a MS show of VS.NET).
I have found some resources specifically for VB.NET, but the ones I have seen only walk you through a "Hello world" program .. which I think I've written a thousand of those =) ..
Not a newbie by any means just not a real programmer yet .. Well if anyone could help me, I'd appreciate it, I have tried looking at vb6 tut's and translating those to vb.NET but the two are different enough where that can be annoying .. well thanks in advance ..

Hey,
Well if you have some c++ background, I would suggest C# since it is exactly the same as VB .NET, but uses syntax familiar to C programmers with VB's RAD features. Either way go with what you feel more comfortable with.
Again, they both have the same capabilitites, just different syntax....I just suggested C# since you mentioned a little C background.

Anyway here are recsources for C#/VB .NET

those sites have more than enough examples to get you going.
