1. Having the read following article and the author accusing some of us of finding new technology titillating. I am off.
Here is a quote " Legacy Systems-There are billions of dollars invested in software written in languages other than Java. In fact, the largest problem faced by most large enterprises in the immediate future is the integration of their existing stovepipe applications, not creating new applications. Most of the new applications being written in corporate IT shops today are not isolated systems, they are subsystems that live in the context of existing legacy systems. In addition to legacy systems, IT organizations also have large investments in legacy tools, legacy application libraries, and-perhaps most troublesome of all-legacy programmers. This railroad train of investment in technology and skills will not be suddenly de-railed by the advent of new language, however titillating it may be. " Here is a link for anybody who is interested. http://cgi.omg.org/library/wpjava.html 5. I'm off to www.corba.org in C++. Bye! Can't say it has been a pleasure.
