5-10 years ago that was good advice. Now it's not. VB.NET isn't signficantly easier than C# and it's not clear how much MS really supports it now that BillG is out (Basic was always his baby).

Well, sort of. MFC is back from the dead in the new VS2008 "Feature Pack", but they're definitely trying to steer people away from old-fashioned Petzold-style C/C++ (indeed, the latest edition of The Petzold Bookâ„¢ is C# and WinForms).
