Java vs .NET

CHaN_316 writes "Yahoo is running a story called 'Is Java Finished?' It provides a brief overview of the strengths and weaknesses of J2EE and contrasts them with .NET. Classic arguments are brought up like Java being great for portability while .NET ties you down to Microsoft products, etc. It's interesting that they bring up the Java Community Process, and how it is a rather slow moving procedure that is causing Java to become stagnant."

    Another article that will serve no purpose besides starting goofy flamewars.

    Why not just post a PS2 vs XBox article?

    For my two cents, Java has had years to prove itself, and hasn't done so to any great extent.

    I think you mean pining for the fjords, something that norwegian blues are known to do.

    Although not so much when they're dead.
