> Any more comments from those who have used C# for serious work how they rate > its strengths and weaknesses against Delphi? Delphi IDE vs VS? C# vs Java? > (just small questions eh..) > C#/VS is way easier to develop in than Java if you are think GUI. VS nowadays really shows it Delphi pedigree as does C#. I think C# learnt many lessons from Delphi so some things are done better. On the other hand it had to be easy for C++ and Java programmer to get into which has its own complications. Not really sure about this one. > How much is it just a product that MS sells and how much is it a serious tool > they themsleves use? (for Windows and Office) > I would say C# is for RAD where getting product out door is tantamount. For performance and portability you stick with C++ - especially performance. And to go beyond one computer, then while there are bindings for MPI in various languages (but not delphi that I am aware of), VS is about the only thing that will let you debug MPI with any sort of comfort.
