Haven't | visited it in a while, though. The article seems reputable enough, and just compared Java with .Net. The remark in question was in a sidebar interview. | > I only worry that once they emulate Java, their monopoly leverage, | > combined with Sun's mismanagement, could work to undermine Java's | > success. | | Well, my hope is that Sun will move even more towards Linux, BSD and | open-source. And Java does not only depend on Sun's management. Big companies | like IBM and Oracle are behind it as well. And the role open-source | organizations like Apache are playing becomes more and more important, too. That's a good point. If other big companies are committed, even if only offer MS alternative, there's hope good sense will prevail in the end.
