Having just read the following excellent review of Leopard, as far as 'Making a clean break,'

I'm inclined to wonder whether it isn't something called Objective C-- the fact that a lot of stuff has to be rewritten.

However, that wouldn't explain why generic Java fixes needed to be held back.

Being kept waiting for these fixes, and then having to pay Apple for them, seems a bit rich.

Or maybe I'm expecting something for nothing!
