I have been using Visual Basic for eight years now. Originally I started with Visual Basic for MS-DOS Version 1.0 and have gradually seen the language improve by enormous leaps and bounds. Whilst developing with Visual Basic I have seen some fantastic programs written in VB; which some developers would have never have thought possible for the language. It’s true that Visual Basic has a slow runtime compaired to big names, however I have seen products completed in Visual Basic when other developer teams working on C++ have failed. The idea of porting to Linux seems excellent. Steven Jones.
Visual Basic is excellent
