.NET is better. It is the next step in the Win GUI evolution process.
.NET is stable and reliable. Also .NET provides more stuff than Win32
enabling Web services. For example it provides Web form classes.

Something very important. The next Windows version codenamed "Longhorn"
will provide *only* managed .NET APIs. MS is committed to provide .NET
APIs for all its products. Take a look at:

All development tools companies are preparing .NET releases for their
products.
