Interesting point. The first person to the market gets 70%
of the market share. Java managed to be the first to create
a platform independant compiler that will work in web browsers.
I think it will be very hard to get rid of them now, or change it
in any major way.
Saying that Eiffel (because it is a better language) will win is
not strictly true. Why do people still use Fortran and Cobol?
Wombles,
David.
