Robert, No... What they actually said is that .NET is better in a windows environment. They were making the case that Windows and .NET cooperate better than Windows and J2EE...that's a case that can be made is some respects. But I don't think they were making a blanket statement of ".NET is better than J2EE"

Someone just threw out the comment ".NET is a better platform than Java/J2EE on Windows" and you agree with that when there was no research given at all. The only example to back that statement up was that a customer went from 12 servers to 4. I realize that managers will make asinine decision based on buzzwords, but don't sit here and agree with someone from New Atlanta on how .NET BlueDragon is better than CF and expect me to sit here and accept it without any research or examples that can be independantly verified. I can hear from Vince all day long how much better .NET is than Java on Windows, but if it were so horrible why are there so many applications that use J2EE on Windows? What platform is the best in running a J2EE server? Sun Solaris? OSX? Linux? The Java version of ColdFusion is run on plenty of big business servers and until I see some kind of research showing me hard number differences between these applications then I will continue to have my opinion that "The only reason I can see a company moving to BlueDragon .NET is to transition completely to .NET and away from CF."
