Tell that...
to the millions of companies worldwide using Java. Or tell that to the millions of developers making money writing Java apps. You can talk about how much better the .NET framework is until you're blue in the face, it won't stop companies from using other options, including Java. The whole world isn't going to give up on all their source code and start writing everything in .NET tomorrow, or the next day, or next year, or next decade. It's just not gonna happen. Anyone talking about nails in the Java coffin looks just as stupid as folks talking about nails in the Windows desktop coffin. If you want to look stupid, keep saying what you're saying.
