Microsoft has rev'd the language a few times and brought C# and VB.NET to parity language wise (that is what they say there is probably lots room for discussion). For example with the release of VB.NET 10 in VS 2010 they finally removed the need for "_" in line continuations. All that being said I am a C# developer so I only know what I hear at conferences and tech talks.
