Wow..

It seems to have been losing momentum long before this came out:

You're delusional. More .NET shops switch over to J2EE all the time.
Expedia is the latest (large-scale) example. The reason is simple -
companies can't recruit .NET programmers out of college - but there are
*lots* of Java programmers out there.

For whatever it's worth, I work as a recruiter for a large consulting
firm. I would have to agree that Java is taught more in academia, but
from a real world business perspective we are seeing a great deal of
migration from Java to C#, and almost none of the inverse.
