How many times have you ever heard mechanical engineers argue about which is better: rivets or welds? Never, because both have their place and are more useful then the other in certain circumstances.

Both Java and .NET have a place in the data center. What we should be trying to decide is which one is best for what kind of jobs.

Unless you are independently wealthy, you should be trying to solve problems for your employer for the least amount of money. Not trying to settle a religious feud (which will never be settled).

And don't get me started about Win2k vs *nix!
