As soon as anybody doing an embedded system says "let's use Java",
fire them.

Agreed ;-)

Same goes for .NET.

You guys realize that that sort of "technology" is all over things like
Agilent and Tek scopes, network/spectrum/logic/etc. analyzers, etc. these
days, right? As soon as the marketing guys say, "This has to have a web
interface that can completely control the interface and display its screen
remotely!" while one certainly has many choices besides Java or .Net, at that
point someone who'd suggest, "Let's do it in straight C or assembly!" is the
one who ought to be fired. :-)



Nah, fire the one who suggested building scopes with BordelloVision or
whatever they call all that crap. I own one Windows scope, and I've
been wishing I didn't....nice scope otherwise.
