If you're only writing for Windows, you can do just as well with .NET as with Java. In fact, C# reads a lot like Java. And even with the other languages, you'll see a lot of similarities because Microsoft stole a lot of the .NET platform's concepts from Sun. If you want to go cross-platform, Java's the better choice. The Mono project exists, but I believe a fair amount of what .NET gives you is specific to Windows, and is closed-source and therefore is not available from anyone else. Mono does, at least, give you the CLR, but I've not played with it and I have no idea what else it gives you. -- Steve Sobol - Programming/WebDev/IT Support sjsobol@JustThe.net
