Addi: this is a popular view associated with Java which I believe to be ill-founded. The primary goal of Java is cross-platform not performance. In the corporations that I have been working with most applications do not require optimal performance and optimal memory usage. I also do not see a lack of new applications being developed in Java. Once MSFT develops their own Java it will not be cross-platform so I really do not see the benefit MSFT can provide which for most corporations is Java cross-platform portability. Again, most corporate applications are not matrix inversion type applications, as a result the performance and memory limitations do not constrain in most of these applications. I also believe we will see enormous Java performance improvements in the near future from Sun.
