yes, that's y i said... C / C++    / = or... :P

but still I would learn suggest you learn the original one rather than the .NET, cause, C++ .NET is a much easier version of C/C++, and you can only able to programming in Windows platform, which mean you can't programming for others, like PSP, Linux, and spoon.... which in my opinion, rubbish..... that's y I never really go into C++ .NET (as I don't why wee even need that), I would rather do C# .NET....
