you don't seem to get the first thing about business...publishers will

I didn't say no one was buying Java books. I said that it is not
necessarily an indication that the language is better than the alternatives
that don't have a lot of books. Hell, look at all the books on the Atkins
diet and similar low-carb diets. They sell well, but those diets are all
pretty much worthless for most people.

yep, i agree, although i will disagree about java NOT being the best
platform out there - but that's a personal opinion ;-)
