MS has a signed agreement with SUN that allows them to "Add whatever they want to Java as long as they support whatever SUN adds".. so basically MS is free to do what they want with it, and thus we have 2 versions now (and rumours were/are flying about a release that was designed by a joint group of software developers.. god help us all ;)

Java is suffering what UNIX suffered (as you pointed out)... that's why "I know java" but "I don't use it very often".
