Java is a simple and eligant language. But has any company ever
made a fortune on a language? Isn't the "definition" of Java in
the public domain? To my knowledge, Fortran, Basic, C, C++ did not
make anyone rich. I mean couldnt someone reverse engineer
a Java compiler from a white paper? I really dont know.
