Re: C# Comparatively?

Yes.

Don't judge the speed of a language by it's appearance. C# and VB.NET use the same framework, and ultimately they're really the same language: MSIL. As such, they have the same performance characteristics.

>The text is all caps-sensitive
Oddly enough, the de facto standard for VB.NET is to capitalize the first letter of each word, so while VB.NET is case-insensitive, you're still somewhat expected to follow the common casing conventions. Personally, I think the case argument against C# is full of hot air because of that.

C# is definitely more strict though, but in my opinion that breeds better code by making the programmer think.
