My advice to Microsoft: Get Real. Go with Java, and do it the best you can.

Java is awesome, if you like being slow, substandard multimedia and 3D graphics, running differently on every platform, UIs that are 10 years behind, pretending it runs everywhere, being controlled by 1 company, horrendous development environments, and not being compatible with hundreds of millions of lines of existing code and installed software bases without breaking the imaginary "100% Pure Java" standard.
