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.
