Not the same thing. We are talking about enterprise apps not desktop OS's. Microsoft has never owned the high-end enterprise apps that has always been the territory of IBM.
Microsoft was/is so shaken up by Java they first tried to destroy it then they copied it (C#). Java will be around for a long time to come much to Microsoft's dismay.

I resp[ectfully disagree. C# is what Java Should have been, but isn't.
Plus Microsoft is the Borg- resistance is futile. As a lifelong contractor I have a good eye on market demand- I am getting 50% calls for .NET and maybe 10% for Java
