Microsoft will continue developing their own
version of Java and the ace in their pocket is, first
of all, they control vast majority of the world
software business and operating systems. They have
developed technologies in other languages, operating
systems and development environments that are far
superior to that what Sun has to offer with all its
limited impact on what is happening in the software field.

For Web-based tools, what about the Google Web Toolkit:
http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/ approach, which uses a subset of Java
code to generate JavaScript to run on browsers without the need for a JVM?
How limited is Google's approach when compared to Java applets? Should Sun
be developing an equivalent tool that uses a larger subset of Java
functionality? Does it make sense for Microsoft to go the same route?
