I find that to be an inaccurate assessment.  C# is proving to be quite
a powerhouse language.  It also uses keywords which make it clear in
source code what you're doing, such as "ref" and "out" to indicate which
parameters passed to a function are by reference, are output, etc.

It has a nice delegate syntax.  You don't have to declare everything
before you use it.  It's got an excellent debugger interface.  Nice
built-in exception handling.

I wouldn't use it for high-speed apps, but for all business apps, all
GUI-based apps that aren't games, all general purpose apps... it looks
very nice.  It's also VM-based, so it works across platforms without
changing a single line of C# code.

Not too shabby.
