Watch the troll bait. This is 90% fiction, 10% authors zealous opinion.

  90% fiction - hmmmn certainly a lot of the C# criticisms are to do with the Visual Studio IDE differences but to be fair not many people write C# code outside the IDE. It may be unfashionable to say it but VB is a more elegant and discursive language - and very often a good deal more succinct. I write in both languages (among others) - most major work in C# for reasons such as compatibility with existing code libraries. The one big advantage of C# accrues when you are working on a web app and you need to switch in and out of JavaScript mode - the language similarities are an asset then. Having said all of that - language wars are pretty boring and the end user could not care less what you wrote the stuff in as long as it works.
