I like using C# and .NET 2.0.

This is because C# is the only programming language (besides PHP) that I can actually accomplish projects in. I have tried almost every language under the sun, and have had trouble developing decent applications.

In C#, I was able to complete a full GUI program that allows a user to fill out forms, and then writes the form data to a .txt file. The file was then sent to an e-mail address using System.Net.Mail.

Despite building the GUI parts in Visual Studio, I wrote the mail and file writing features. Just by looking at the code, I can see how it works quite easily.

It also helps that Visual Studio has excellent documentation, even while you are writing code (The auto complete feature allows me to browse what I'm looking for right away). I have yet to find an IDE like this in python.
