What are Symantec's plans for their "Cafe" product with regard to Activex?

At Internet World last week, Microsoft was promoting Activex (their new programming language that competes with Java) like crazy. Symantec is smart to have gotten into the applet development-tools game; Cafe will ride on the coattails of the Java hype for a long time to come. But SYMC will need to account for Activex as well, since many programmers will require development tools for both languages. And if Microsoft had its way, Java would be wiped off the face of the earth faster than you can say "espresso."

Now, if there were a Microsoft buyout of SYMC, this wouldn't even be a question...
