[Mono-list] Re: Features and advantages of .NET and Mono?

[Eric Lemings]

More questions:

What makes C# a better language than Java?  (I'm not fluent in either one
but they look virtually the same to me.  Not to mention, neither one is an
ISO standardized language and probably won't be for at least 5 years from
now.)

And how is .NET different from the CORBA platform?  Does .NET overlap with
CORBA or does it have an entirely different purpose?

Thanks,
Eric.
