In the Ease of Use Wars, Visual Basic is the Benchmark

Rational Extends WebSphere Tool Lines.  Well, I am looking through a number of articles that talk about how enterprise development is being made simpler, and that Java-focused application development tools are being extended for ease-of-use.  Ahem, and the benchmark is (tearing open the envelope): Microsoft Visual Studio and Visual Basic.
