Bah, I don't see why the hate against .NET...
It does get JITed into native code the first time it's run and not that much slower than using somthing like C.

But still, the right tool for the right job...
I still use C if it has to be cross-platform or needs alot of speed but if its a windows program with a GUI .NET makes it really easy and fast to develop.

By the way, visual studio .NET 2002 allows function name completion, just type something like SetWindowsHoo then press the ( I think its control-space ) key and it fills out the name or brings up a list if theres more than one match.
