		<P>I get asked this question ALLOT ! </p> <P>Actually, the question usually comes wrapped in explicatives, or phrased less as a question and more as a command.</p> <P>We actually do the recordings in VB for a few reasons. </p> <P>1.) There are more VB programmers than C# developers (though the gap is narrowing.) </p> <P>If we did them all in C#, I’d get even more email !</p> <P>2.) VB is easier to read and understand.</p> <P>We always provide the source code in BOTH VB & C# for your convenience.</p> <P>Visual Basic is more verbose, so, though it may make C# purists a bit queasy, it should be easily understood by than. C# is more terse, therefore, perhaps a bit more difficult to understand (especially by folks who don’t program in it.)</p> <P>3.) If we took time to record each video twice (once in C# and once in VB) we could only do half as many. </p> <P class="postfoot">
