I was in Java for 4 yrs in my initial Dev days, and after knowing .NET in it's beta stage, several of my friends and myself moved to .NET & C#. The only reason was Sun's lack of Tool support and it's time to release anything new. It was 2001, when JSF was started in paper. But, cameout in 2006/2007 as a release version. So, i dont think JavaFX wont be released for next 3-4 yrs.

Why i said Java is not a technology for UI, it's sluggish performance. I just clicked the above JavaFX demo, when i saw the code, i thougt still Sun / Java is in the same stage. for 1 single button in oval shape, if we've to write these many 100's of lines, which customer is going to pay for it. No one.

Also, when i selected 12.5% in the dropdownlist, the entire window started flickering 100 times/sec. I thought i messed up my system. Thank god, i managed to go to TaskBar and killed the so called JavaFX Pad.

Bottomline, let Java & Sun should know their limits and keep their concentration in midtier and let other Co's like BEA/IBM/Oracle have the App Server developed for them.

Let God save Java.
