Do you think that's true? I'm thinking of making a jump over to Java from C. Since I'm not an especially good or advanced C programmer, I figure it might work out, assuming the above is true. That said, can anyone recommend a good Java programming book--something on the low end for starters would be nice. Of course, any recommendations are welcome and appreciated.
