It is basically underminding the concepts behind the invention of Java. The concept of using Java is not to develop Windows specific (or for that matter any OS specific) based application. ... How successful Microsoft is going to be in my opinion should not even be a concern because this strategy will eventually back fire. Well, I think they will also next create an alternative virtual machine and try to lure people with their own better "multi platform" alternative. Many will follow because it is from Microsoft. They do not have to win in this game to be succesful. Just create enouch confusion/FUD in the market that Java does not work. I am not sure what Java camp can do, but I think they need to hire out Rod Macpherson as their strategy advisor <ggg>. His suggestions seem to carry more viability than what seems to be coming out the the other Java flag bearers.
