We ourselves are choosing .NET or so it seems all this time after the
NET-bubble emerged. I think even M$ will not be able to go that far.
Otherwise we'd have Java everywhere - which is not the case, thanks God.

In fixed N-dimensional space largest cluster always wins in the closed
volume. But our "space" is not bounded in volume, nor in dimensions.
So, there is no worries that everybody will use C# or whatever.
