Anyone knows if C# is used inside microsoft to buiild desktop app ( office ? Visual studio ? ) I remember it wasn't the case for a long time but stopped watching since.

The Visual Studio IDE and Expression Blend are (or at least were) WPF... I guess there's a pretty good chance it was C# rather than VB.NET.

Not sure if there is anything else though.

Visual Studio since 2002 (.Net 1.0) has been partly written in C#/WinForms and then C#/WPF. Visual Interdev (from which the current Visual Studio lineage descends) was partly written in VJ++. It was these bits that were ported to C#/COOL for the 2002 release.

Isn't part (majority) of their Singularity OS written in C#? I've been waiting to see if they were ever going to release the realtime GC as part of that project to the C# community at large.
