The problem is that today's school education is dictated from above, rather than being demand driven. With the help of computers and the internet, I hope, this will change over the course of the next, say, 50 years.
I once read in an interview with a consultant from a company partnering with Microsoft that the JVM is only capabable of running JAVA programs whereas the.NET VM is capable of running programs written in several other languages. Of course this is not true (eg. look at KAWA: Scheme->JVM). Now, I'm wondering whether it would be possible to compile C# programs for the JVM. In that way both camps would be united and some Microsoft propaganda be demystified.

You don't shut it down properly? A better solution is to use the kernel option apm=no-power-off.
