Can a VB.NET exe be ran on any Mac with the .NET framework? Or does it require something like "SoftWindows"? (Can the .NET framework even be installed on a Mac?)

Thanks in advance.
 
Take a look at the Mono Project. I think a few folks have run .Net applications using Mono on Macs. I don't think you'll be able to use WinForms, though (Mac is just a Unix box with a sweet UI).
 
I beleive that they are still working on or discussing a WinForms implementation in Mono. On the other hand, I don't see why it wouldn't work if you run a Windows emulator. Don't know if that would really be worth it though.
