.NET Framework and VB Runtime

From Joel On Software:

For some reason, Microsoft's brilliant and cutting-edge .NET development environment left out one crucial tool... a tool that has been common in software development environments since, oh, about 1950, and taken so much for granted that it's incredibly strange that nobody noticed that .NET doesn't really have one.

Apparently nobody noticed this about Visual Basic either. Many many moons ago when I wanted to compile a stand-alone EXE without requiring the VB runtime I went through the same motions as Joel. I don't see Microsoft doing anything about this since they haven't done anything about VB yet.
