They've relegated Java and JBuilder to legacy support as a matter of policy. They're about to announce "Cool"(tm) which is not Java. Their servers do not scale. "Eventually" the world will have passed Microsoft by. -JCJ

MSFT:[ They've been so use to a monopoly for so long it will be novel for them to compete without a monopoly advantage, but I'm an optimist and think that they can catch on. I also think that is where SUNW wants them to be. Lots of great network applications requiring lots of great SUNW servers.] Dear Michael, I imagine MSFT will get it. Probably, they already know. But if they don't produce quality applications soon, they will fall ~ just like Rome. Do you think they will have enough time to turn the company around? Do you believe the Justice Department will break up the company? Mephisto
