Take Java. Make it Windows only. Fix some mistakes. Tweak performance. Add a
little functionality (e.g. operator overloading). That is C#.
Both are designed for GUI and web programming, so they don't fare well for
massive concurrency, high-performance numerics or allocation-intensive
algorithms (e.g. idiomatic functional programming).
C# 3.0 gets it a bit closer, though. I wonder what C# 4.0 will look
like, though I worry about the complexity of the language when they
keep tacking stuff on like that.
