I am almost as ignorant as you about .NET, but I can point you to
Lahey's explanation of .NET at http://www.lahey.com/lf71/netwtpr1.htm
, which links to Microsoft's site
http://www.microsoft.com/net/default.asp .

Quoting Lahey's site:

".NET is a Microsoft initiative that focuses on distributed computing
and software development productivity. The infrastructure technology
supporting that initiative is the .NET Framework. Within this
Framework, an application written in multiple languages can share data
across multiple platforms with other applications."
