Ohhh... and there are JBoss fans out there, too. As an aside, I've
spent a happy couple of days pulling together some pricing for a
client, and j2ee app servers are all hideously expensive. The
exception in the non-Open Source world[1] seems to be Orion server. 

How on earth do they think they'll cope against the onslaught on .NET?
It's not as if J2EE is leagues ahead of it in terms of capabilities,
or performance so it's got to compete on price. I am hearing more and
more good things about .NET, especially from died-in-the-wool java
developers. If I ran Windows, I might look into VS .NET. As it is,
IDEA will have to do ;)

Cheers,

Simon
