Programming languages

Yes (Well, there are significant changes), yes and yes.

Thanks Brandon, although I wouldn't mind a little more info.

Thumbing through the .Net Forum should answer most of your questions.

C# and VB 7 (VB .Net) are part of the .Net platform. So saying C#.Net is redundant as there is no other C#.

.Net, in a sentence, is a platform with a single underlying byte-code that all languages are translated to, thus making it platform independent and very easy to have multiple languages working in conjunction with each other.

One of the co-ops I was offered was a very large company in the Northeast (who, as a matter of fact, have the largest scale .Net application on the east coast). While obviously game companies aren't rushing to .Net, many other companies are, and for good reason.

Au contraire; C# is a language standard, which Microsoft implements. Saying that C# == C#.net is as accurate as saying that C++ == VC++.net.

Humorously, my experience with C# is primarily with Mono, and you're right. For some reason I think of the runtime as .Net. The marketing is obviously working.
