Programming discussion

True. But .NET fanboys seem like they're ubiquitous. Even on Java/C forums, they post ".NET is the best programming language". Really, that costs performance. I'm an experienced programmer and I seriously cannot withstand .NET. It was my second language.

Don't you have to install .NET Framework in order for .NET coded programs to work?

OP: Sorry for the gigantic code-hijack over here

True, but I am not quite sure if it works just same as JVM.

I write a Java code in my PC.
Some guy using Windows Phone gets to run my code.
Java is the solution to portability, but unfortunately, it isn't perfect.

Yeah .NET has CLR bytecode, similar to Java bytecode. In fact even Visual Basic 6 compiles into an intermediate language (p-code) although you can compile to machine code This is actually a pain for reverse engineering! Despite the fact we all laugh at people who program malware in VB6, they're maybe not so noob as people think. Certainly not as noob as people who program malware in .NET (not calling general .NET programmers noob btw) .
