I'd recommend you: - Switch and learn C# (it's the core language of .NET and is its future, not VB) - Have practice under Windows - Then try to switch to Mono, first in parallel, then fully. Cheers!

Hello I'm a small-time developper and use VB.Net to write desktop applications on Windows, and would like to have some feedback about writing web applications in Mono, so that I don't have to learn another language. I'd like to check how Mono compares to Microsoft's implementation of the .Net framework, so that I know if Linux + Mono + VB.Net is a viable option for web applications, of if it's more reasonable to use the orthodox solution of Windows + MS .Net framework + VB.Net. Is there a good, recent article based on actual tests so that I can make an informed choice? Thank you. -- View this message in context: http://mono.1490590.n4.nabble.com/VB-Net-MS-vs-Mono-for-web-apps-tp4649912.h tml Sent from the Mono - ASP.NET mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Mono-aspnet-list mailing list Mono-aspnet-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-aspnet-list _______________________________________________ Mono-aspnet-list mailing list Mono-aspnet-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-aspnet-list
