Yeah, from my perspective that was done with unfair (monopolistic) business prcatices > I don't know who the smart > money is on, but my money is on Java. Why? Doesn't .NET rely on C# and "compiled-to-machine-language" code rather than "compiled-to-byte-code" with Java -- a potential performance advantage? I have heard stories that where MS really gets you on servers (web, database, etc) is there are additional charges for each user or CPU. Is .NET priced this way? I assume that IBM remarkets CFMX because it offers RADD advantages over pure Java, while being interoperable (if not compatible) with Java.-- what does .NET have to compete? > My prediction is that if the race gets close IBM will buy Sun. > I don't know if the Justice Department would permit that, but it certainly would shuffle the deck!
