I hope it's okay to post the URLs, which I think should come out as non-clickable. But in a forum about VB.NET, I thought it would be helpful to post links to where you can legally download VB development software from the manufacturer, for Windows and web development.

I prefer C#,a nd I'm starting to do a bit more C++, but there are a lot of advantages to .net, and if anyone has been wanting to check it out but for the price of Visual Studio, you can get that for free, without breaking any moral rules.

I linked them.

I personally hate that .net environment, but many like it. To each his own. :)

You hate the IDE, or the software framework to program against?

The entire environment for building sites with it. :)
