I thought this was pretty cool:

Basically, you can compile and run C# apps in Linux, and there are a couple of other languages they are working on as well (one for GNOME GUI apps and another named Vorbis#). I would love to see .NET support in Linux, and I am really hoping that ASP.NET in Linux will work out well.

I know that you have mentioned Delphi being shown as faster in a benchmark, but do you have anything showing that it's still faster (as in within the last 2 years). Or better yet, anything benchmarking it between the C# or VB.NET languages? I am getting further into programming (beyond simple ASP/ADO stuff) and I am trying to cover both VB.NET and C#, but I never looked at Delphi. Is there a Delphi.NET interpreter/CLR?

Actually, there was no reply as I didn't really understand what I initially read of the benchmark report. Essentially, the post was so large that it overloaded me, so I went to the benchmark itself and I guess I just didn't "get it". I may look at it later.

Here is what I found on the site (is this the right site for it?):

I haven't seen an article yet, but it does look interesting.
