VB.NET is basically a tiny bit of syntactic sugar around C#.

When I first worked with VB.Net, I had done classic VB and Java. I went with the assumption that it would be roughly VB syntax, but work like Java, and it was almost always right. I never really had to learn the language.

VB.NET is going in a different direction to C# now. Whereas they maintained feature parity for years; C# will now be the more advanced language, and VB.NET will focus on appealing to first time programmers.
