I haven't really had much experience with C# or Java, but I would like to learn one of them. Which one should I choose? Also, if you could give me some resources to draw from for either of them, it would be great.
Thanks!

nvoigt compiled a nice set of links, and is a sitcky in the C# board. Here is the link

There are several resouces you can check out there.

I would have to say that Java is the one to learn.
This has been a public service announcement from GOD.

Java biggest disadvantage is that they don't give you the power of managing your own memory the way you can in c/c++. C# improves on java by giving you this feature.
I don't know much about either java or c#, but this is from my understanding.

Being able to manage your own memory depends on the used Java implementation. If you are using an implementation of real-time or embedded Java, then there may be the possibility to enable or disable the garbage collector.
The main disadvantage of the garbage collector is that it is a process which cannot be controlled by your software, this gives much trouble when creating real-time systems.
On the other hand, not having to worry about memory management can be useful. If your software does not need to run in a real-time environment so you don't have to worry about real-time system aspects, then letting the garbage collector care for the memory management can have its advantages.
This thread could easily be closed...if you look in the C# board, there are about 20 threads on this EXACT SAME TOPIC.
