"I've been surprised and pleased by how well Visual Basic .NET works for Web page development on Microsoft's Internet Information Server (ISS)" - Jesus Wept.
"Trolling"? I have no idea what you are talking about. What I wrote is simply, rock-solidly, literally true -- "I've been surprised and pleased ...".
Your concerns are that I'm on Windows instead of Linux, not using Visual Studio, am using Visual Basic .NET instead of C#, that I didn't just criticize Microsoft but found something in their work I like, or something else?
Me? I've never touched Linux, tried Visual Studio in total for less than an hour, have not looked seriously at C# and so far have yet to write a single line of it, and do have some objections to some of Microsoft's work. Still, as I wrote, "I've been surprised and pleased ...".
