Here are few of the good reads: WPF + Powerfull styling and skinning structure + Easy to create an own Look and Feel + Does support Windows Forms + The future technology for developing Vista Applications + The ability to reuse existing code + Highly advanced databinding possible - Declarative vs procedural code - Requires .NET Framework 3.0 - Compared to Windows Forms still in development fase - Requires Dx9 compatible vidcard for advanced graphics Windows Forms: + Extensive documentation to be found on the internet + Plenty of examples + Does support WPF - How long will this be supported? - Design your own look and feel in a application is a lot of work. http://joshsmithonwpf.wordpress.com/2007/09/05/wpf-vs-windows-forms/ http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/42636e55-a1e0-4b29-bbd1-cd8073585584/wpf-vs-windows-forms?forum=wpf
