compared on,

capability, usability, advanced features, job oppurtunities,

which is best,

My guess is C#

I believe the answer depends on whether you mean a .NET-specific language,
or a language available in Visual Studio capable of producing .NET
applications.
If the former, I would agree with Jamie that, today, it's probably C#.
Having said that, there are indications that C++ is receiving more attention
in Visual Studio 2005 and subsequent releases and *may* become the
preeminent .NET language.
If the latter, I'd say C++, hands down. The ability to produce all sorts of
applications in, and outside of, .NET sets it apart.

If you want to get the job in Companies like Microsoft then
C# and Visual C++.Net is perfect. For other Huge market
around the world you must have command in VB.NET too.

But remember for Dotnet, the strong command in Dotnet framework
is must either you use C# or VB.NET.

But of course the nice thing is that the class libraries are consistent
across the two.
Your investment in one language will pay off in the other.

The most powerful language for .net is MSIL (but who
wants to code that low down) since all other .net
languages compile down to this, and it is up to the
language designers what to add to their languages like C#
and VB.NET, for example generics.

In my opinion the best high level language is C# and is
easy to pick up coming from a C#, java or even Delphi
background. Almost all companies who work with .NET will
want you to be able to code at least C# and/or VB.NET. I
don't think I've ever seen adverts looking for Delphi.NET
developers. And by far the best IDE has to be VS2003,
with VS2005 coming soon.
