Conclusions

The initial response to C# has been quite favorable. A fair portion of the .NET Framework is written in C#, and our developers have found the language to be well suited to the task of developing such a large framework.

Although I don't get as much time to write code as I once did, I'm really happy with how easy it is to write code in C#. I hope you enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

If you're looking for more information on C#, you can find the language specification at http://msdn.microsoft.com/net/ecma. Also, you can find lots of interesting information at http://www.gotdotnet.com.
