Neither is any OTHER generic language.  EL itself, at least the 
language part of it, isn't a trading platform either.  It's the 
underlying libraries and support that make EL/TS a trading platform.
If you want to move off TS and go to some other language, NO other 
language is a trading platform by itself.  You will have to write 
lots of support infrastructure to replace the infrastructure provided 
by TS.  I suspect you could write that infrastructure in VB at least 
as easily as you could in C++ or Perl.
