I'm liking C# and .NET more and more by shminux 2006-09-25 16:51:57
Have to code a nice GUI for an embedded thingie connected over serial/USB.

For anything where performance is non-critical, especially GUI, it is clearly superior to C++. Basically, it's everything C++ should have been. No mucking around with pointers, references, memory allocation, leaks... Of course for the real time code, such as firmware, C has no competition. For everything else... there is C#.
