I may be misunderstanding the general tone of the last several posts particularly re: Citrix as an interim solution while the world decides how best to use Java. But I don't see the need for Citrix as interim at all. Neither Java solution is carrying anywhere near the real world load that Citrix already has. Sure, Java is nice, you only have to write (re-write) it once. But that is still one more time than you have to re-write it with Citrix. And because we will never live in a world with unlimited bandwidth, the need to efficiently use the pipes we have, however big they become, will always be with us. Instead of doubling the number of lanes on our virtual highway, Citrix makes the virtual cars a tenth their original size. Its hard to imagine a world in which that kind of pardigm inversion is not truly valuable. Even when everything is written in Java (?), you'll still have a huge incentive to run it using Citrix.
