Typing VB: Dim ex As ExcepR... Oops, backspace, tab and it's there. Typing C#: ExcepR... Oops, backspace, no IntelliSense window pops up, either four times backspace or Shift + Home + Delete/Backspace.

Try pressing backspace, then CTRL+SPACE.

That, dear sir, conforms to lunacy. Seriously? Case sensitivity alone is reason to ditch C#? Ever hear of intellisense? As the other intelligible 'academic' above me pointed out, learning to use your IDE is crucial if you want to be a developer. Personally, I would much rather have an academic write my code than a kindergartner. They tend to think better. Good luck with your VB endeavors. I shall see you when you're done debugging. I shall now end my thoughts of anger with this period.
