If you are looking for a VB-like dev environment with decent GUI tools
integrated take a look at Gambas.  I have been playing with it for a
few weeks now and it is rapidly maturing into quite the deal.

As for python I am still looking for a decent way to create GUI's.
Glade is ok, but quite restrictive, TKinter is not bad but is coding
all the way which can be a pain, and Boa is just plain flakey to me.
