According to statistics, Java continues to have the crown of the most used VM-based platform in the industry. However, Microsoft's C# and .NET gain ground every day. While C# might or might not overcome Java in the following years, the fact remains that more and more programmers want the choice of C# among their developer tools. So, where does this situation leave Apple?

...more trolling.
If I had a nickel for every "I want feature X... coincidentally, Apple needs to add this feature or they're DOOMED" post I've seen here, I'd be a rich man. But at least I'd hoped the editorials would remain above the level of trolling.
Why are the maintainers of this site so eager to push Zeta, for example, which has no modern functionality (except the ability to run BeOS apps from 1998) and yet criticize Apple for not supporting the latest flash-in-the-pan commercial programming language that even its creators don't use for in-house development?
That aside, does anyone actually think that MS will release any of its important software in IL-friendly code? They can easily throw in a tiny block of "unsafe" code in each project just to impair portability.
ASP.Net is great, but given Mono and Rotor to start from it should be trivial to improve the Apache ASP module to the point where ASP.Net can be run on any Apache server. I'm looking forward to this, at least, because I'm pretty damn tired of PHP.
