If you missed JavaOne, the video Webcasts of McNealy, Schwartz, Gosling et al. are available from this site. The round table mentioned above gathered people from Sun, Oracle, Borland, Novell, Motorola and others. The discussion topics included: Java vs. NET, integration issues, the impact of open source and top problems that Java is facing today."

    I've used Visual Studio, Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA

    Eclipse www.eclipse.org is excellent and is backed by the industrial strength of IBM. It's open source and it's completely free.

    IntelliJ IDEA www.intellij.com is also excellent, but it's not free.

    Never tried Borland Jbuilder.

    In my opinion as far as IDE's go Visual Studio, IntelliJ IDEA, and eclipse are on the same level.
