Why would you use a cross platform API with a single platform language?

For simple applications the difference may not be noticable. However, making a complex application is not only about calling OGL functions (which obviously always run at the same speed, whatever language you use), and you must do much stuff on your own (like hidden surfaces removal).

And all this stuff should be quite slower with VB.
