vb .net runs on the .net framework. The .net framework is big and slow, but it's actually worth it. It contains lots of classes (not sure if you know what those are) and functions that are built in to help you get work done faster. It also is "language-neutral", which means that it's extremely easy to use C# or Managed C++ libraries in your VB.NET code.

Oh, and MS is going to stop supporting VB6 really soon (if they haven't already)
