VB.Net is actually a pretty good product - I've been using it on a daily basis since .Net 1.1 hit the street.
I've found that VB6 users that hate on VB.Net do so because it won't permit the kind of stupid shenanigans that you could get away with in VB6.
The VB.Net haters fall into two camps - the ones that do it because it's "Cool" to make stupid, sweeping statements like Dijkstra and have no concept of how a language can evolve over 55+ years. The other camp is basically no-talent language snobs.
BTW, VB.Net has full support in .Net 5, including WinForms.
Another great RAD tool is Lazarus - the core language is Object Pascal and it's incredibly cross-platform. (and open source!)

According to members of this board, there are .NET clubs in existence. I thought I was a fanboy LOL.
Languages dp evolve. But VB is no more an evolutionary step for basic anymore then C# is one for C/C++. It's a fork.
