this is like comparing a Mac truck with a Lotus Elise, they are both very good at what they are intended for, but dire when taken out of context, I wouldn`t use VB to make games (to restrictive and you need to talk to DX direct or via optional librarys, plus you need the VB runtime to make it all work), and I wouldn`t attempt to write a stock control program or a 3D raytracer in DB (even with the Blue add-on, DB is made for speed and tends to overlook details like giving the expected results to equations
) <jk>
Seriously, each has relative plus and minus points, the bugs in DB are annoying, but they are clearing them (just stop adding features until you have it stable Lee....ok?
), while VB is very stable but not very fast when it comes to graphics, and the native commands are very limited anyway.
Like I say, no serious comparison can be made, just because you can make comparisons doesn`t mean they have any validity, just like haveing the ability to do something doesn`t mean you have to do it, (something some people who are considered very smart would have done well to think on over the years)
