If you can say this about VB, you clearly haven't seen this message
from Linus: http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2002-13/0132.html
(posted to the linux kernel mailing list yesterday, April 1 ;-) ).
Once this baby gets rolling, you will understand the true power of VB!

Personally, I think its a great move, security-wise. Just look how the
security of programs like Outlook and Word has been affected by meerly
supporting VB. Imagine how secure it could make a kernel!
