There isn't one. When generics are introduced, it will be made apparent by the presence of the <> only. The syntax is actually very clean, I like it a lot. Much neater than C++ code, to do the same thing. Dunno how far C# will go in allowing specialisation though.

I'm honored Chris, but I think this is getting on ppls nerves a bit. It's not polite to stare and point at Quasimodo[^].

I didn't I say that I enjoy it. :| I'm just getting tired of people that knock things for no good reason. If you're going to try and ridicule a language/whatever, at least put in a little effort.

What is stupid about it? It says what it means and even though I do not do VB.NET I think it is a better term than abstract. First time I came across abstract I had to go to the help to figure out just what it meant. MustInherit though is totally clear.

No one rule works.

Actually, that's a lot less ABSTRACT and conveys more MEANING. Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.
