Yes and I'm sure IBM, Sun, Oracle, Apple, Novell, Netscape will work
together in perfect harmony.

Sure. Here's a partial repost:

Here's one story in TechWeb, a basically ABM publication, at
techweb.com as follows:

"Sun To Unveil Enterprise JavaBeans Spec
. . .

But some significant compromises were applied to the final spec to
accommodate legacy technology requirements among some of the larger
Java players.

"If they couldn't get the partners to agree in an area, they struck
the functionality," said a VP at a Java licensee. "A lot of stuff has
been omitted because some of the partners have technical boat anchors
in their operating systems, in their development tools, or their
servers. So now, there's no multithreading or concurrency control, and
you can't move an Enterprise JavaBean around. They're
location-dependent." "

Then the Sun fans wonder why ISV's flock to NT. The reasons, of
course, are tight integration, developer support, and a mass market.
