    Why doesn't your site reflect this knowledge? All I see is javascripts and applets. Maybe I'm out of line, and I apologize if I am, but your post smells of a cheap attempt to start a .Net versus Java flame.

      Seeing that you're comparing the two and not equating; I'm sure we can all agree that test would result to false. ;P

      I post without thinking. I actualy wrote it the first time as Java = Awesome but thats not right because I cannot assign Awesome to Java. The comparison is false as you pointed out. Maybe I need another method. Java >= Awesome ???

        You can if they are castable types. Although, for the life of my I can't see how Awesome could ever fit into Java. I better stop now. :laugh:

            If you do work with Java for the next 6 months, there's no saying you can't keep on using .NET for home projects to stay fresh. Also, from employer's standpoints. Having .NET (or whatever) experience in the past (even 6 months ago) is better than no experience. If you can prove to them you know your stuff, I don't think it'll be much of a problem for you.

            There are a lot of companies where you will have to show evidence for corporate experience (as opposed to home projects) if you have technology X on your CV.

              hi all, i have a query regd change of technology. hope u ppl will guide me properly. i am a dot net programmer. i have been in the industry fr 2+ years now, and all through i have been working on asp.net with c#. i changed my job 3 months back . my new company now doesnt have any dot net projects (they dont expect to get one in the next 6 months). so they are training me on java now and will put me on a java project soon. I wish to know if it would be good for me to stay on here and work on java. that would be a drastic tech change for me. i am looking at the future aspect. ia m pretty comfortable with c# , but cant say i will be comfy with java. another concern is that it wont be financially rewarding to my career , as i would be considered as fresher in java field and it wont add to my dot net exp as well. ( in case in need to shift after next 6 months time) any suggestions are welcome thanks in advance

              • Capitalize the first words in a sentence, proper nouns, and the personal pronoun 'I'.
              • Punctuate contractions using an apostrophe ("can't" for example).

                I second this. I've already got a poor impression of you (i.e. prst123) just because of these reasons. You should try to act like a professional at all times.

                      Thanks Gary for the useful tips regarding punctuation. Yes, I do have corporate expereince in .Net, not home projects. I was lucky to be working on asp.net all through these 2 years ,since my first job; unlike most other developers who r not so lucky to be working on the same tech. I can work on java for the next 6 months or even an year, not an issue. but will that help me in gaining dotnet knowledge, or leveraging on my existing knowledge. I have worked only on c# web applications. There are people who can master multiple technologies, but iam not a genius. :) Another point i would like to make is, there is a difference between knowing a language/technology and being good in it. I can claim that i know/have worked on several languages like basic, pascal,vb,c,c++ and java, apart from dot net. but i cant claim to be expert on these language.
