Hi, guys:
    Good afternoon, having lunch yet ?? First of all, I think this is a
tech. site - not for this kind of discussion, and second, you should watch
more closely to MS's new stuff, as a matter of fact - I like the way they
are creating new things and that's the way to keep our world moving forward,
no one can there's no any other better language besides JAVA in the very
near future, and the points u are holding here, I can not agree fully -
that's DO NOT SEE C# from JAVA's perspective, they all have their strong
points and weaks ( u do not have to compile to .exe unless u need to , right
??, cross platform ? why people use TJ with compiled JAVA code ?? ...), hope
to hear more tech. comments instead of this kind of discussions, cheers.
