Better and faster than what?
.Net is much better than the previous Windows development tools that
preceeded it, but it isn't all that different than many of the other
development systems out there. They took Java and the library design
of Java as their starting point, and developed a very similar
framework; they were smart enough to avoid some of the bad decisions
made in Java (although not all!).
The current state-of-the-art for development in Java probably
surpasses that of .Net, given Java's head start. So if you're looking
for an rich, IDE-based development environment, you've got your pick.
