Wine with .NET?

[Fredrick P. Lackey]

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am a Microsoft developer and currently pushing the capabilities of the
.NET Framework.  On that same note, I am considering moving my laptop to
some version of Linux (either Solaris v8.0 or Red Hat).  I assumed that
I would need to use VMWare or some equivalent to continue using Visual
Studio .NET.  Can anyone give me some advice?

Many thanx,
