I don't understand its technical significance but I am happy that it has remained a open-source application(Sun too has a great reputation for Open source.)

and JSP + Java Servlets + Java Beans + Tomcat or nightmares in complexity :D
wow!
I don't intend to learn them in near future:D

PS: I don't know Java and all that stuff. I am a hobby programmer who learnt javascript, PHP and MySQL only because I desperately needed to prepare web application for my micro enterprise and could not afford the big bugs to the professional web developer :)

I am basically a medico and teacher!

lol...JSP and sevlets are fun to work with (My BE 1st sem project - Roster management ), examiner was impressed with the work :D

A good book and a keen mind makes the difference.

If u are in delusion that JAVA is a hardboiled egg then do refer this book:
Head First JAVA (Kathy Sierra & Bert Bates) - O'reilly Publication

And for JSP
Head First JSP - O'reilly publication


These are some of the non geeks books and a kind of visual tour.

Jakarta Tomcat is just a webserver/servlet engine, there is not much to learn abt it.

MySql is good for small projects but to get procedures, subqueries and other advanced features Oracle comes to rescue.

For Javascript validation SPRY framework rocks !!! (No more irritating dialog boxes, everything goes inline)

Learned a lot abt web application, always luved to learn new and better things.

+1 for that.
I'm currently working on 3000+ line Insurance premium computation packages, and Oracle's strength is pretty obvious in these situations

Well technically C# has beter performance because .NET compiled the Bytecode(MSIL) to native app for the system when the application is run for the first time .

After this it just loads the compiled native image and runs it thereby giving very good performance . Dunno why you consider it crap ?

Almost all distributions use Beagle by default now .
