When it started talking about mimicking the experience of Visual Basic, I was excited, because I have fond memories of that (and Borland Delphi after it) and its ability to let me design a window/dialog layout in a WYSIWYG manner,
But then it showed XML code (which of course I saw coming, given the title) and I was immediately reminded of WPF with its XAML, which was a nightmare for me. The excitement was instantly replaced with great disappointment :(
I'll readily admit that I haven't tried it so I don't know how much like WPF/XAML it'll be, but it's pretty clear it won't be like Visual Basic or Delphi.
