As far as I know, it's very dependent to Windows.
VB.NET depends on the .NET framework.
Btw i think this thread is a bit offensive because every language is special in its own ways.

True, but that's a Windows thing. So it's only Windows compatible, you don't use .NET Frameworks on Mac or Linux.

True
I forgot to fill in, "And .NET framework depends on Windows"

I'm not a big Microsoft fan, but I just stated in my previous post that you CAN develop .NET applications using its' native languages for Windows, Mac and Linux compared to AutoIT which is - at least for now - Windows dependent.

That's not exactly native .NET Frameworks though, I know there was a kit for C# to develop in .NET Framework for Linux, but I forgot where I posted that on another forum.

Damn, now I wanna learn AutoIt, I hope you are right, I found VB.Net pretty much confusing.
RE: AutoIt vs VB.NET - ArkPhaze - 11-26-2011
VB.net is a very simple, easy language in comparison to some others i've used.
RE: AutoIt vs VB.NET - DaPaus - 11-26-2011
I voted for VB.NET. Just because I never tried AutoIt maybe I will try it later. But can somebody make a propper beginner guide on Autoit, but really from where to find the editor to the first hello world program, maybe even further?

@AutoIt users I'd like to know if it supports the following features, just out of curiosity,
-> Garbage Collection
-> Multi language Support
-> Object Oriented
Anyways if you really want to learn programming, go for C or similar languages, makes it easier. Thats what they usually teach in programming courses to beginners. Or even Java, its rich in API, Platform independent, and many many more advantages.
isnt java the msot versatile language?
in au3, i know you can simulate multithreading, the other two, no.
You also have to remember, Autoit3 was originally made a scripting language and will never be updated to have true multithreading capability or object orientation, while vb.net is a full language and has the support of one of the largest companies in the world...while Autoit3 was made by some guy who wanted automation to be better because microsofts" scripit" or whatever wasa complete fail and had hardl nay usability.
Random note: Autoit3 is coded in C++
