Scott McNealy saying that ".Net is a joke"
I have just noticed the story about Scott McNealy saying that ".Net is a joke" (via
Drew March's log http://dotnetweblogs.com/dmarsh/posts/4035.aspx)
As he said it is an example of FUD but also it begs a
number of questions:
(a) Is an indication that .Net is starting to have some
sucess in the market and Sun is worried and needs to disparage it ?
(b) Does McNealy have any evidence to support his
supposition ?
(c) Is McNealy really doing Sun any favours by making
such ridiculous comments ?
I would have thought that Sun has more than enough
problems of it's own with the increasing in roads that Linux will make in
to it's business.
I have programmed both in the Java world and with the
.Net framework and certainly in terms of productivity I feel considering more
productive in the .Net world.
