Stay away from VB and Managed C++. VB syntax is ugly an Managed C++ just plain sucks. C# has a lot in common with Java and Objective-C, so it's as good a starting point as any for learning to develop for a managed runtime. As ArBee says, it's easy to throw together WinForms apps. If you're hardcore, though, you'll write Win32 C/C++ apps.
