a) I disagree - which of "IBM's current IDE products" are you referring to?
b) This statement assumes that the "IBM's current IDE" is the most
feature-rich available IDE available. One could easily argue that Intellij
IDEA is in fact far more feature-rich than VS .NET. I'll leave further
comment to other posters - I could never agree that VS .NET is more
feature-rich than today's tools for Java - I don't think anyone reasonably
could.
