On a slightly related topic - I work in web systems development for a company here in town, and just recently one of the other departments handed us an *ancient* Visual Basic app that desperately needed emergency fixing. We generally implement Java solutions in my department, and suddenly switching over to VB has not been fun. Where did "==" go? Where did ";" go? However, I will say that just learning Microsoft Software does not make you totally marketable. It seems Java's roll in today's industry is growing, so don't limit yourself to learning Microsoft only.
