Yeppers. He's a Java bigot. He thinks anyone who uses anything else is ignorant. I'm sure he'd love for Ralph Nader and the other leftist commies at Sun to be able to force the government to regulate (dictate) what you run on your desktop. He also criticizes operating systems he's never even used. This is the same moron who called IBM's MVS and Digital's VMS operating systems unstable. Apparently even Linux wizards Alan Cox and Linus Torvalds acknowledge those OS's superior to Linux. Check your stock prices... IBM and Microsoft are doing very nicely thank you. Sun?...well it's doubtful they will survive the next 5 years. Finally Sun just blew it with the JDK 1.4 release big time. They crippled the Windows sockets/NIO implementation and blamed it on MS. Probably intentionally as they don't intend on fixing it for 6 months. Now they just shot themselves in the foot as that gives those writing high performance servers more reason to flush Sun. Can't play with the big boys in big leagues at all. However, I do predict that IBM will probably at some point end up owning this franchise run by pimply faced kids, and make something out of it. At that point Microsoft may well get back into the Java ring since they won't have to negotiate with retards.
No, different moron, whoever that was.
I slung JCL and Cobol for too many years. MVS was plenty stable, altho somewhat labrynthine.
You're confused about a *lot* of things here, aren't you?
