So - there are obviously VB to rev converts - are there any Rev to VB converts?

I find that the so called "cosmetic details" of a language or a development platform are in reality way more than merely cosmetic - it's like a car you drive every day wherein even the little things that niggle can eventually make your life miserable - you want the controls on the dash to look great and be easy on the eye and the doors to shut easily with a nice solid clunk, the steering wheel to feel good in your hands as you're zooming effortlessly along etc. etc. VB may have been some hot s**t in its day, but now it justs reminds me of my old Fiat. We should concede them a minor point about the rev documentation though. Yes, all the info is there - somewhere - but it's arranged more like a jigsaw puzzle than a book and when I'm trying to learn a new programming language, a book is a whole lot easier. All that said, IMHO rev wins hand down!
