Advantages Of .NET Over Java

Posted by timothy on from the easier-to-spell dept.

ansonyumo writes "ZDNet is carrying an article written by one John Carroll that outlines specific advantages of .NET over Java. It's written from the point of view of a Java advocate who has 'seen the light.' First of all, comparing .NET and Java isn't very fair; you have to compare .NET and J2EE. When you level the playing field, most of his arguments readily fall apart."

    Even if you used Delphi you would be better off than VB...not an OSS thing but a general usability and code speed, reliability, quality dev environment thing.

    SQL Server is a load of crap as well. I cannot imagine justifying it on any basis but you didn't know any better. It has some clustering capabilities that the freebies don't have, but other than that it's not worth much.

    Incidentally, did you apply the Slammer patch? (otherwise known as SQL Server 2K SP3?)
