I think too many old schoolers still assume VB to be as bad as it was in the old days. VB ain't C or Delphi, but realistically can do a lot of stuff in ye ole business app that runs just fine. The run times also aren't nearly as poor compared to C as they used to be.
I think they use a combination of VB for GUI and C for computationally expensive things. Gee, I wonder why they too aren't using C#? :P What a tremendously silly idea.
