Contract jobs kinda rock. Just Imagine, working at different states of the US doing what you enjoy. I don't mind the contract positions that is a new trend for programmers. But, for a someone who is married and have kids, I can see the downside in contracs..
.Net was created basically for creating appliacations for Windows Platform only. Yes, Mono is a great idea for non-windows users to use C#. But,.NET in my opionion its best advantage is to create software/ webservices/web applications that are linked to Windows OS.
Corporations, mid-level business, small business and e-commerce that use Windows will benefit more in.NET than Java. But, in the long run.NET will be the dominate player for Windows applications, Windows Vista, Pocket PC, and I.E and Windows Webservices. Java is great for all O/S and.NET is great for Windows O/S, In reality, the Windows O/S is the dominate O/S in business, corporations, small business.
The best bet is to have Java and C# in your resume. Than you have both of both worlds.
