The beginning

After years of programing in Visual Studio 98, I have decide to experience of programming in .NET. I think of myself as a experienced C++ programmer, and I have at this momet a good knodledge of the MFC library and STL.

I don´t know yet exactly what advantages will give me the .NET environement, but it is the moment to move. Visual studio 98 it is 7 years old... and the applications that I build start to have a little older feeling.

The first decision it is to decide if I will continue programming in C++ with MFC (this is still possble in .NET 2003, I don´t know if it will be also possible in .NET 2005), or move to other different programming language. The possibilites are:
- Java in .NET.
- C#
- Visual Basic.

I have too search the pros and the cons of this important decision!.
