I'm having trouble finding any info on this through Google, so I'm asking
here...

Are there any statistics on how many VB.Net vs. C# developers are out there?
Any hard numbers on trends?

What type of #'s are you looking for? How many VB.Net developers can
develop and implement a fully-operational GPS navigational system with
database statistics, dashboards, and reports type application vs those that
can do the same in C# or just all developers in general that can print
"Hello World!"?

With *most* statistics, you probably won't get an absolutely correct answer,
but you can probably find some reasonable ball-park figures. My guestimate
would be about 60% VB.Net developers vs around 40% C# developers. IMO,
though, that does not mean VB.Net is better...but that, is another story...

Mythran,

In my idea it is oposite if you not take the users subject but his message.
(I always have problems with those persons who make different subjects than
the contents. What does that OP mean?

I think that there are at the moment more C# developers than VB.Net
developers but that it is quickly moving up to the figurs you gave. though,
that does not mean that C# is worse...but that, is another story...

Hey I found something with some help, thought I'd share since I asked the
question.

This is maybe a valid measure of the derivative of the user base over time.

PJ6 a meaningless graphic, you cannot buy C# and VB.Net seperatally. Will I
give you a graphic that shows that more and more babies in the USA are
comming from the green cabbage.
