I think the biggest thing is that you have no metaprogramming support in C#
(only type-parametrized classes and functions via generics) whereas you have
templates in D.

Plus DbC and built-in unit testing.

Another good thing C# lacks is aliases (AFAIK only namespace aliases are
supported) and strong typedefs.

Anyway there's a comparison page http://www.digitalmars.com/d/comparison.html
