RE: Java and Visual Basic, how to learn?

What do you mean?  Are you suggesting there might be an alternative to  
NET?
 
Tell us a bit more Joe.  Eclipse runs on Linux?  And on Windows?  Are there
any decent Java tools to build attractive GUI programs with Eclipse?  For
both Windows and Linux?  
 
Have you a couple of screen shots of a simple application built for Windows
and also built for Java?  Running on a Windows Desktop and a Linux Desktop?
 
I would very much like to see that.   Thanks Joe.

Of course, for Java you can get that sort of functionality (and much more)
for free with Eclipse <smile>. And it runs on Linux as well.
