Not wishing to be left out of the Rich Internet Application’s market with Microsoft launching Silverlight, Sun has announced JavaFX. This is an open source technology, which isn’t surprising, seeing as Java itself is now open source. Sun is betting a lot on it’s open source strategy and has seen good take up of OpenSolaris, it’s x86 based version of Solaris.
Whilst I believe .NET is a great technology to work with with it’s support for multiple languages, Java is still the technology if you want great cross platform support.
