# No, not hard...
It's more wholesome, from an object-oriented-programming point of view. No half-measures, like VB, and nothing too scary like multiple-inheritence in C++.

Oh, and there's jobs in it, too. Which is good, 'cos it pays my mortgage!

# hmm....
so does java make apps as well as applets?

# Oh yes...
Me, I don't do much application/applet stuff. I mostly do stuff destined to live on a webserver. It's excellent for the cross-platform ability, and decent support for unicode and internationalization.

I know people using my code in hebrew, arabic, chinese... on PCs, UNIX boxes, VAX machines, AS400's... and it all just works.
