[edit] Visual Fred

This article is pure POV that, if anywhere, belongs in a software jargon dictionary. Any content deemed useful from this page belongs in Visual Basic .NET#Controversy. The Rod (☎ Smith) 17:38, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, it's just a very minor term that doesn't deserve an article. The description of VB.Net is also inaccurate. Although porting old projects is difficult, the syntax is similar to VB6, meaning there is almost no learning curve for existing VB programmers. It's easy for VB6 programmers to write new VB.Net code. While this may not be important to purists and MS-haters, it does matter to people who actually make a living developing software.
