Hi.

I want to read a character from console, while writing something to the
console.
And if, there were no input character in some seconds, then I wish to
continue to writing to the console.
How can I done that with .NET?

Have you looked at the properties and methods of the Console class?
Specifically, the KeyAvailable property and the ReadKey method?
