It may be sooner than that.  I just saw a reference to something that I 
interpret as Visual Basic for the net.  IOW - the web clients can use it 
like java scripts.  If my ass-umption, when I scanned it, is right, java 
may pass into oblivion real soon.  There are far more people out there, who 
fancy themselves programmers, that know Basic.  BTW - I believe MS is at 
the bottom of this.

Note: I may be full of it as I saw the reference for it last night late.  
IOW - I was tired.  There was a tie, as I recall, to the MS browser, (I 
forgot it's name).
