It's pretty obvious that MS had no intention of pushing Java without a way of locking some kind of MS extensibility into it. Now that MS has lost that battle, C# is intended to attract the gap between C++ and VB. Yes, Java is a great development language but it has defieciencies that I think there is an opportunity for MS to take advantage of. Java with Swing has a large demand for resources..and it's slow. And yes MS had MFC which is going by the wayside..thank God. "Ivo B. Limmen" <limmen@furore.nl> wrote in message news:99mosb$p7b$1@porthos.nl.uu.net... > Hi, > > Microsoft will not win.
