So VB6 had it right all along?

  In more ways than one, I've been told.

      Some of the things I liked about VB6 that are not widely done well today, IMO, are (A) the RAD GUI builder (B) small, native binaries (C) deeply integrated, language-agnostic RPC framework

  i loved VB6 (our school intro programming class used it) and i sometimes wonder how much influence that had on my future career choices. It was a programming environment that felt fun, powerful and not scary at all

    Totally agree! IMO VB.NET was just disappointing - tried too hard to turn VB into something 'proper' with 'better standards' rather than just being what it was (the YOLO language that you could build scrappy things in fast)
