C# is now a better language than Java

My preference is definitely visual studio over netbeans/eclipse simply due to response time and the ease of installation.

Where are these people come from? Installing Eclipse is as easy as unpacking ZIP file. Unlike VisualStudio, whose installer is just slow and buggy piece of crap, which constantly breaks so hard, that you have to download a special tool to reinstall it.

visual studio express 2008 took me less than 5 minutes total to get up and running.

netbeans or eclipse took me far longer to start building web apps (GAE or scala/lift)

plus the IDE itself has a very long load time and terribly slow response time.

How is NetBeans difficult to install? I would understand being confused as to what package to download from eclipse.org, but NetBeans?!

Setting up a scala/lift environment correctly took a bit. Read up about the proper JDK, SDK and I still have probs building inside the IDE (I just gave up and use maven on the command line)

And exactly how easy would that be under VisualStudio (object of the original complaint about NetBeans being too difficult to set up)?
