Yes you probably should. I did a lot of VB programming between about 1997 and 2005, then largely abandoned it in favour of C# and C++. Why did I change? VB and VB.NET came with a lot of limitations which other languages didn't have, particularly with regard to object oriented features and the ability to do very low level tasks at speed (like moving pixels around). Also, I wanted to move to languages which were essentially platform neutral, such that I could use a Linux OS most of the time.
