Sun tool targets Microsoft | CNET News.com

Comment: A couple of weeks back I saw a market share study for Java IDE and the clear leader is Borland, close second IBM with Eclipse and a third one I can't remember right now, but not Sun's Forte. Why don't they jsut throw resources at making a better eclipse. Eclipse has a strong foundation, it has a very strong momentum, no wonder why Borland is moving up the stack, they know IBM is breathing down their neck, and to top it off since they don't make money off of Forte anyhow I don't see anything wrong with my reasoning. What do they have to loose nothing, what do they have to gain making a real contender to dev-studio out there...So bottom line I'm curious as to what they're gonna come out with, but their track record in terms of IDE isn't stellar up until now....
