I really take offense to be called a moron! The reasoning behind VJ++ 6 is stupefyingly obvious even to this moron. Bill and co are simply acknowledging what is the truth in WindowsLand: only Windows exists or matters. There is one thing that has not been happening with Java. Nobody has been generating native WIN32 applications with it. Now we can....and will! Whether or not I agree with the new "delegate" and "multicast" keywords, there can be no denying that this environment will allow me to build apps that run at a decent speed on Pentium boxes. For a lot of developers that is the entire world. Sun make great server hardware and James Gosling is undoubtedly a genius but WIN32 defines the desktop. >> In any event their logic is beyond me and as a MSFT share holder I am not too happy with this latest development because this will be a definite backfire. Anyone who wants to do real Java development and uses Visual J++ 6.0 is simply a moron (no offense to anyone). >>
