One of the things that U2 has is the KISS principle. What I find like in .Net, is sometimes it overcomplicates a solution. 80% of my code is in UniBasic and 20% in .Net, however I feel like 80% of my time is taken up managing the .Net code compared to 20% managing the greater amount of code in UniBasic. That is something I hear from a number of developers who develop in both environments.
I agree we should not do everything in U2, but I wish some of the other environments kept it simple to. One thing I have always liked about U2 is that I always felt confident that I would deliver a project close to time and close to budget, I rarely get surprises. However with .Net, suddenly I hit strange problems relating to versions of OS, security issues, etc that muddy the waters. Hence I spend a lot of time on .Net forums seeking solutions that I just don't need to do with U2. Buggy may have been a bit harsh, but there is an issue of consistency and dependability of development.
