Yes - it is *totally* about the Framework....

The problem is....
Microsoft gave in and provided some backward support for some of the older vB 6 constructs and ways of doing thing. As such, a number of people continue to use such features rather than pushing their apps Totally to the Framework (and out of the VB namespace). This means that for those people, they have not fully made the transition and that it isn't as simple of a transition to C# as it *should be*.

If you know the Framework, the VB versus C# is primarily a syntax question and not a detailed knowledge question. I believe this will become more true in the future.

It is to those that are carrying around VB 6 baggage that we should be saying "Be healed...."
